PrP(Sc )accumulation in neuronal plasma membranes links Notch-1 activation to dendritic degeneration in prion diseases

Prion diseases are disorders of protein conformation in which PrP(C), the normal cellular conformer, is converted to an abnormal, protease-resistant conformer rPrP(Sc). Approximately 80% of rPrP(Sc )accumulates in neuronal plasma membranes where it changes their physical properties and profoundly af...
