This work investigates the molecular architecture of fibrils formed by the peptide AMed42-49 representing residues 42-49 of the 50 amino acid polypeptide medin associated with aortic medial amyloid, the most common form of senile localized amyloid. The peptide aggregates within 2 days to form bundles of microcrystalline-like needles displaying a high degree of order. Fibrils were prepared from peptides containing up to 23 13C labels, and the solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) method rotational resonance (RR) was used to determine constraints on the distances between selective atomic sites within fibrils. The constraints are consistent with unbroken beta-strands hydrogen bonded in a parallel in-register arrangement within beta-sheets. Further RR measurements identify close (>6.5 A) contacts between residues F43 and V46 and between S45 and V46, which can only occur between beta-sheet layers and which are consistent with two principal models of beta-sheet arrangements. X-ray fiber diffraction from partially aligned fibrils revealed the classical amyloid diffraction pattern, and comparison of patterns calculated from model coordinates with experimental data allowed determination of a consistent molecular model.",
