Similar folds with different stabilization mechanisms: the cases of prion and doppel proteins
BACKGROUND: Protein misfolding is the main cause of a group of fatal neurodegenerative diseases in humans and animals. In particular, in Prion-related diseases the normal cellular form of the Prion Protein PrP (PrP(C)) is converted into the infectious PrP(Sc )through a conformational process during...
