Lung surfactant protein C (SP-C) is a lipopeptide that contains two fatty acyl (palmitoyl) chains bound via intrinsically labile thioester bonds. SP-C can transform from a monomeric α-helix into β-sheet aggregates, reminiscent of structural changes that are supposed to occur in amyloid fibril formation. SP-C is here shown to form amyloid upon incubation in solution. Furthermore, one patient with pulmonary...
Pulmonary surfactant contains less than 1 wt% of the very non-polar surfactant protein C (SP-C). In most animal species the major form of SP-C is a 35-residue peptide chain which contains two thioester-linked palmitoyl groups, giving a total molecular mass of 4.2 kDa. Several minor variants of SP-C exist, formed from N-terminal truncation, lysine palmitoylation, methionine oxidation and C-terminal...
