44. In the previous studies, the concentration dependence of the transition of Ad-2α was investigated. Increases of peptide concentration of up to 10 μM linearly enhanced the reaction rate (slope) while shortening the lag time period for β-sheet formation. However, further increasing the concentration to more than 20 μM prevented the CD measurements due to the formation of insoluble materials. Under 10 μM concentration, no visible precipitate was observed. Thus, 10 μM concentration was selected as a standard condition.

50. -1. According to this mechanism, the second self-catalytic step is 2000 times faster than the first non-catalytic step under the conditions ([peptide]=10 μM). This analysis suggests that the transitional reaction possibly proceeds via the first self-transitional and the second self-catalytic steps, in which there is a kinetic barrier at the first step. Although the aggregation numbers were not considered in this analysis, the first self-transitional step may include the aggregation of α-helix peptides. The temperature dependence of Ad-2α also suggested that the reaction occurring during the lag time was the rate-determining step and the rapid conformational transition followed.
