Complex folding and misfolding effects of deer-specific amino acid substitutions in the β2-α2 loop of murine prion protein

The β2–α2 loop of PrP(C) is a key modulator of disease-associated prion protein misfolding. Amino acids that differentiate mouse (Ser169, Asn173) and deer (Asn169, Thr173) PrP(C) appear to confer dramatically different structural properties in this region and it has been suggested that amino acid se...
