Heterologous cross-seeding mimics cross-species prion conversion in a yeast model
BACKGROUND: Prions are self-perpetuating, infectious, aggregated proteins that are associated with several neurodegenerative diseases in mammals and heritable traits in yeast. Sup35p, the protein determinant of the yeast prion [PSI(+)], has a conserved C terminal domain that performs the Sup35p func...
