Aggregation of the gelsolin protein fragment is the hallmark of the hereditary systemic disease gelsolin amyloidosis. As with other protein misfolding diseases, there is an urgent need for efficient disease-modifying treatment for gelsolin amyloidosis. The formation of amyloids can be reproduced by incubating the disease-causing amyloidogenic 8 kDa polypeptide, 70-residue gelsolin protein fragment, AGelD187N 173–242, in vitro and monitoring the process by thioflavin T dye. However, for screening of potential aggregation inhibitors, the required protein amounts are large and the biotechnological production of amyloidogenic proteins has many challenges. Conversely, use of shorter synthetic regions of AGelD187N 173–242 does not mimic the in vivo aggregation kinetics of full-length fragment as they have different aggregation propensity. In this study, we present an in vitro aggregation assay for full-length AGelD187N 173–242 that has been produced by solid-phase chemical synthesis and after that monomerized carefully. Chemical synthesis allows us to produce high quantities of full-length fragment efficiently and at low cost. We demonstrate that the generated aggregates are fibrillar in nature and how the purity, terminal modification, initial aggregates and seeding affect the aggregation kinetics of a synthetic gelsolin fragment. We also present sufficient quality criteria for the initial monomerized synthetic polypeptide.
