Kosmotropic Anions Promote Conversion of Recombinant Prion Protein into a PrP(Sc)-Like Misfolded Form

Prions are self-propagating proteins involved in transmissible spongiform encephalopaties in mammals. An aberrant conformation with amyloid-like features of a cell surface protein, termed prion protein (PrP), is thought to be the essential component of the infectious particle, though accessory co-fa...
