A closer look at prion strains: Characterization and important implications
Prions are infectious proteins that are responsible for transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) and consist primarily of scrapie prion protein (PrP(Sc)), a pathogenic isoform of the host-encoded cellular prion protein (PrP(C)). The absence of nucleic acids as essential components of the inf...
