Introducing a Rigid Loop Structure from Deer into Mouse Prion Protein Increases Its Propensity for Misfolding In Vitro
Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders characterized by misfolding of the cellular prion protein (PrP(c)) into the disease-associated isoform (PrP(Sc)) that has increased β-sheet content and partial resistance to proteolytic digestion. Prion diseases from different mammalian species ha...
