Direct Observation of Competing Prion Protein Fibril Populations with Distinct Structures and Kinetics

[Image: see text] In prion diseases, fibrillar assemblies of misfolded prion protein (PrP) self-propagate by incorporating PrP monomers. These assemblies can evolve to adapt to changing environments and hosts, but the mechanism of prion evolution is poorly understood. We show that PrP fibrils exist...
