To form extracellular aggregates, amyloidogenic proteins bypass the intracellular quality control which normally targets unfolded/aggregated polypeptides. Human D76N beta2-microglobulin (beta2m) variant is the prototype of unstable and amyloidogenic protein which forms abundant extracellular fibrillar deposits. Here we focus on the role of the Class I Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) in the intracellular stabilization of D76N beta2m. Using biophysical and structural approaches we show that the MHC containing D76N beta2m (MHC76) displays stability, dissociation patterns and crystal structure comparable to those of the MHC with wild type beta2m. Conversely, limited proteolysis experiments show a reduced protease susceptibility for D76N beta2m within the MHC76 compared to the free variant, suggesting that the MHC has a chaperone-like activity in preventing D76N beta2m degradation within the cell. Accordingly, D76N beta2m is normally assembled in the MHC and circulates as free plasma species in a transgenic mouse model. | |||

Human D76N beta2-microglobulin (beta2m) variant is the prototype of unstable and amyloidogenic protein which forms abundant extracellular fibrillar deposits.

Using biophysical and structural approaches we show that the MHC containing D76N beta2m (MHC76) displays stability, dissociation patterns and crystal structure comparable to those of the MHC with wild type beta2m. Conversely, limited proteolysis experiments show a reduced protease susceptibility for D76N beta2m within the MHC76 compared to the free variant, suggesting that the MHC has a chaperone-like activity in preventing D76N beta2m degradation within the cell. Accordingly, D76N beta2m is normally assembled in the MHC and circulates as free plasma species in a transgenic mouse model.
