Embodiment 1
[0657] Example 1: Peptide synthesis
[0658] Unless otherwise stated, all reagents were used as obtained from the supplier. Peptide synthesis reagents include diisopropylethylamine (DIEA), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), dichloromethane (DCM), (2-(7-aza-1H-benzotriazol-1-yl) -1,1,3,3-tetramethylurea cationic hexafluorophosphate) (HATU), 2-(1H-benzotriazol-1-yl)-1,1,3,3-tetramethylurea Cationic hexafluorophosphate (HBTU), 1-hydrobenzotriazole (HOBt) and piperidine were obtained from Applied Biosystems, Inc. (ABI), Foster City, CA; or American Bioanalytical, Natick, MA. Standard 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl (Fmoc) amino acid derivatives (Fmoc-Ala-OH, Fmoc-Cys(Trt)-OH, Fmoc-Cys(ACM)-OH, Fmoc-Asp(tBu)-OH, Fmoc- Glu(tBu)-OH, Fmoc-Phe-OH, Fmoc-Gly-OH, Fmoc-His(Trt)-OH, Fmoc-Ile-OH, Fmoc-Lys(Boc)-OH, Fmoc-Leu-OH, Fmoc -Met-OH, Fmoc-Asn(Trt)-OH, Fmoc-Pro-OH, Fmoc-Gln(Trt)-OH, Fmoc-Arg(Pbf)-OH, Fmoc-Ser(tBu)-OH, Fmoc-Thr (TBu)-OH, Fmoc-Val-OH, Fmoc-Trp(Boc)-OH, Fmoc-Tyr(tBu)-OH) were obtaine...

[0734] Example 2: Preparation of oligomers
[0735] a) Disulfide bond stabilized (17C, 34C) N-Met Aβ (1-42) oligomer (2a)
[0736] 83.1 mg of synthetic (17C, 34C) N-Met Aβ(1-42) (1a), TFA salt, (1 ml for every 6 mg peptide) of Example 1a was treated with HFIP, and the solvent was removed by lyophilization. Dissolve this in 4.0 ml DMSO. Then with stirring, this DMSO solution of the peptide was slowly added to 45 mL of 20 mM PBS (20 mM NaH) containing 0.2% SDS (sodium dodecyl sulfate) 2 PO 4 , 140 mM NaCl, pH 7.4). This solution was then made 5 mM in DTT (dithiothreitol) and incubated at 37°C for 6 hours.
[0737] The sample was then diluted with 3 parts of water and dialyzed against quarter-strength PBS containing 0.05% SDS overnight at room temperature using a 3500 MWCO dialysis membrane. The next morning, dialysis was continued for 2 hours against 1 L of fresh buffer at 4°C.
[0738] The YM10 membrane was then used to concentrate the sample in an Amicon stirred cell. A 0.5 ml ali...
Embodiment 3
[0739] Example 3: Preparation of oligomers
[0740] a) (14C, 37C) N-Met Aβ (1-42) oligomer (3a)
[0741] The (14C, 37C) N-Met A? (1-42) peptide (1b) of Example 1b was suspended in 100% 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2- Propanol (HFIP) and incubate at 37°C for 2 hours with shaking for complete dissolution. HFIP acts as a hydrogen bond disruptor and is used to eliminate pre-existing structural inhomogeneities in Aβ peptides. HFIP was removed by evaporation in SpeedVac, and Aβ peptide was dissolved or suspended in dimethyl sulfoxide at a concentration of 5 mM, and sonicated for 20 seconds. Use 230 μl phosphate buffered saline (PBS) + 0.2% SDS + 2 mM DTT (in H 2 O + 3 mg DTT dissolved in 9.8 ml helium aerated 20 mM NaH 2 PO 4 , 140 mM NaCl, pH 7.4 + 0.2 ml 10% SDS solution, Serva, catalog number: 20710), dilute 20 μl HFIP pretreated Aβ peptide in DMSO to a peptide concentration of 400 μM. Incubation at 37°C for 6 hours resulted in 16 / 20-kDa (xC, yC) N-Met Aβ(1-42) intermediate and Aβ(1-42) ...
