ABSTRACT
Amyloidogenesis, with its multifaceted nature spanning from peptide self-assembly to membrane-mediated structural transitions, presents a significant challenge for the interdisciplinary scientific community. Here, we emphasize on how Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) can be employed to reveal hidden patterns and dominant modes of interaction that govern the complex process of amyloidogenesis. We first utilize SVD analysis on Circular Dichroism (CD) spectral datasets to identify the intermediate structural species emerging during peptide-membrane interactions and to determine binding constants more precisely than conventional methods. We investigate the monomer loss kinetics associated with peptide self-assembly using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) dataset and determine the global kinetic parameters through SVD. Furthermore, we explore the seeded growth of amyloid fibrils by analyzing a time-dependent NMR dataset, shedding light on the kinetic intricacies of this process. Our analysis uncovers two distinct states in the aggregation of Aß40 and pinpoints key residues responsible for this seeded growth. To strengthen our findings and enhance their robustness, we validate those using simulated data, thereby highlighting the physical interpretations derived from SVD. Overall, SVD analysis offers a model-free, global kinetic perspective, enabling the selection of optimal kinetic models. This study not only contributes valuable insights into the dynamics but also highlights the versatility of SVD in unravelling complex processes of amyloidogenesis.
