Prion protein attenuates excitotoxicity by inhibiting NMDA receptors

It is well established that misfolded forms of cellular prion protein (PrP [PrP(C)]) are crucial in the genesis and progression of transmissible spongiform encephalitis, whereas the function of native PrP(C) remains incompletely understood. To determine the physiological role of PrP(C), we examine t...
