Oxidation of Helix-3 Methionines Precedes the Formation of PK Resistant PrP(Sc)

While elucidating the peculiar epitope of the α-PrP mAb IPC2, we found that PrP(Sc) exhibits the sulfoxidation of residue M213 as a covalent signature. Subsequent computational analysis predicted that the presence of sulfoxide groups at both Met residues 206 and 213 destabilize the α-fold, suggestin...
