• Amyloids are cross beta-sheet structures formed by the assembly of a cluster of proteins or peptides.
• ways to detect amyloids:• amyloid binding dyes: Thioflavin T,
Thioflavin S, Congo Red.• electron microscopy• software algorithms: TANGO, Zipp
erDB• aggregation assay

Aim1: Anti-amyloids disrupt biofilm at early, intermediate and mature phase.Rationale
An Als anti-amyloid forming peptide (Als5pV326N) and high concentration of ThT inhibited biofilm formation at early phase.
![Page 9: 2nd level presentation (1) (1)](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051404/58ef12131a28ab7c468b4571/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
D-amino acids causes the release of TasA amyloid fibers, which results in the disassembly of biofilm in Bacillus subtilis.

Anti-amyloid Phase of biofilm affected Findings
Thioflavin T Early, Intermediate, Mature ThT caused the decrease of
biomass, metabolic rate of
biofilm at all phases. (XTT, Crystal
Violet data)
Als5 V326Npeptide Mature Als5 V326N peptide caused yeast
form cells release frommature
biofilm. (CFU calculation,microscopy)
Rifamycin SV Mature Rifamycin SV caused sparse
biofilm architecture and moreyeast form cells release at
mature phase.
Rifamycin SV and Als5pV326N peptide did not affect early and intermediate phase of biofilm based on XTT and Cyrstal violet assays.

Aim1: anti-amyloids disrupt biofilm at early, intermediate and mature phase.3. Experiments to do
• Test anti-amyloid property of rifamycin SV in C. albicans biofilm forming system: Dot blot using matrix sample extracted.
• Time course experiments to determine at which phase other amyloid binding dyes (ThS, Congo Red) affect biofilm (XTT, Crystal Violet, Microscopy)
• CFU calculation of cells released from mature biofilm upon treatment.
• Confocal microscopy: determine the architecture of biofilm upon treatment.

Aim3: potential amyloid forming proteins are more highly expressed in biofilm than planktonic cell state.
• 1. Rationale
Chandra et.al Journal of Bacteriology 2001
![Page 22: 2nd level presentation (1) (1)](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051404/58ef12131a28ab7c468b4571/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Aim3: potential amyloid forming proteins are more highly expressed
in biofilm than planktonic cell state.
3. Experiments to doCandidate genes->proteins
•N-terminal signal peptide•GPI ancher •TANGO/ZipperDB
Proteins that meet all the requirements above are potential amyloid forming proteins
Compare with the list to see whether the potential amyloid forming proteins are more highly expressed in biofilm.

Payoff• Aim 1 will determine when anti-amyloids affect biofilm in C.
albicans. (temporal)• Aim2 will confirm or deny whether amyloids are in C. albicans
biofilm matrix. (spatial)• Aim3 will determine whether amyloid forming proteins are biof
ilm spefic and when these proteins are differently expressed. (temporal)
