Bri2 BRICHOS, a folded domain of the transmembrane protein expressed in both brain and pancreas, is an experimentally known substoichiometric inhibitor amyloid aggregation. The molecular chaperone effectively delays fibrillization at low molar ratios for β-amyloid (Aβ) Alzheimer's disease (AD) islet polypeptide (IAPP) type 2 diabetes (T2D). While discovering effective antiamyloid inhibitors that work doses appealing strategy to mitigate toxicity, mechanism underlying broad efficient activity BRICHOS remains unknown. Here, we computationally demonstrated exhibits stronger binding affinity fibril seeds than monomers using atomistic discrete dynamic simulations. By competing with bind active elongation sites on newly nucleated, weakly populated seeds, small amount could block rapid growth via monomer addition. observed differential inhibition efficiency against IAPP Aβ aggregation was found depend relative fibril-binding affinities compared those self-seeding monomers. Our derived determinants by may inform future design potent therapies AD, T2D, other diseases.
