LPS-induced conversion of truncated recPrP generates large oligomers (LO) and small oligomers (9-mer to 20-mers). (A) Concentration dependent conversion of 1 mg/mL recShPrP90–232 in 15 mM NaPO4, 3.3 mM NaCH3CO2 at pH 6.5 with 0.005 mg/mL LPS (lane 1), 0.01 mg/mL LPS (lane 2), 0.09 mg/mL (lane 3), 0.17 mg/mL (lane 4) and 0.75 mg/mL LPS (lane 5). The formation of small oligomers sized 9-mer to 20-mer of 0.5 mg/mL recShPrP90–232 in 150 mM NaCl (unbuffered, pH 5.5) with 0.5 mg/mL LPS (lane 6) was sized by the known size of oligomers generated by shaking at 350 rpm with (lane 7) and without (lane 8) LPS. (B) LPS converts and generates different amounts of small oligomers with 1 mg/mL recShPrP90–232 (lane 1), recMoPrP90–231 (lane 2), and recCePrP94–233 (lane 3) with 0.75 mg/mL LPS in buffer (15 mM NaPO4, 3.3 mM NaCH3CO2 pH 6.5). Lane 4 is monomeric recShPrP90–232. Monomer is labeled with M and dimer is labeled as D.
