Protein Folding Activity of Ribosomal RNA Is a Selective Target of Two Unrelated Antiprion Drugs
BACKGROUND: 6-Aminophenanthridine (6AP) and Guanabenz (GA, a drug currently in use for the treatment of hypertension) were isolated as antiprion drugs using a yeast-based assay. These structurally unrelated molecules are also active against mammalian prion in several cell-based assays and in vivo in...
