Functionally Relevant Domains of the Prion Protein Identified In Vivo

The prion consists essentially of PrP(Sc), a misfolded and aggregated conformer of the cellular protein PrP(C). Whereas PrP(C) deficient mice are clinically healthy, expression of PrP(C) variants lacking its central domain (PrP(ΔCD)), or of the PrP-related protein Dpl, induces lethal neurodegenerati...
