Dynamic Diagnosis of Familial Prion Diseases Supports the β2-α2 Loop as a Universal Interference Target
BACKGROUND: Mutations in the cellular prion protein associated to familial prion disorders severely increase the likelihood of its misfolding into pathogenic conformers. Despite their postulation as incompatible elements with the native fold, these mutations rarely modify the native state structure....
