In Vivo Generation of Neurotoxic Prion Protein: Role for Hsp70 in Accumulation of Misfolded Isoforms
Prion diseases are incurable neurodegenerative disorders in which the normal cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) converts into a misfolded isoform (PrP(Sc)) with unique biochemical and structural properties that correlate with disease. In humans, prion disorders, such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, prese...
