Amyloid fibers are implicated in numerous diseases, making their study crucial for identifying effective therapeutic compounds. This research highlights the ability of L-tyrosine to inhibit the formation of amyloid fibers in human lysozyme. At a 1:1 molar ratio under physiological conditions (pH 7.4, 37 °C), L-tyrosine significantly reduces amyloid fiber formation, as evidenced by a decrease in thioflavin T fluorescence. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) shows a major energy requirement for temperature denaturation when the lysozyme is in the presence of L-tyrosine. Additionally, chemical denaturation experiments reveal a shift in the intrinsic fluorescence spectrum of lysozyme in the presence of L-tyrosine, indicating a direct interaction. Computational docking studies with Molecular Operating Environment (MOE) further confirm that L-tyrosine binds effectively, exhibiting similar binding energies to those of the natural substrate. This study underscores L-tyrosine's potential as a strong inhibitor of amyloid fiber formation, demonstrating its stabilizing effect on lysozyme and its promise in therapeutic applications.
