Prion Protein Octarepeat Domain Forms Transient β-Sheet Structures upon Residue-Specific Binding to Cu(II) and Zn(II) Ions
[Image: see text] Misfolding of the cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) is associated with the development of fatal neurodegenerative diseases called transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs). Metal ions appear to play a crucial role in PrP(C) misfolding. PrP(C) is a combined Cu(II) and Zn(II) me...
