Abstrakt: A cell membrane is an essential cellular component providing protection against the outer environment. It is also a host for proteins and carbohydrates responsible for, e.g. transporter, receptor, or enzymatic functions. In parallel, the membrane may also be implicated in pathological processes leading, e.g. to the oligomerization of amyloid-forming proteins, a hallmark of i.a. Alzheimer's disease. The increasing need for detailed information on mechanisms driving the amyloid formation and the potential role of cell membranes in the process proves the research on protein-membrane interactions biologically relevant. Considering the potential and limitations of the relatively well established and newly developed methods, this study focused on selecting methods that allow a broad and comprehensive description of interactions between amyloidogenic protein human cystatin C and lipid bilayers. In the first step, dot-blot and ELISA tests were selected as techniques allowing fast screening for protein-ligand interactions. Next, surface plasmon resonance, spectral shift, biolayer interferometry, and switchSENSE® technology were used to determine kinetic parameters and binding constants for interactions between human cystatin C and the selected lipid bilayers. Based on the obtained results we have proposed the most promising candidates for monitoring of interactions and determining affinity between amyloidogenic proteins and membrane mimetics.
