Divergent prion strain evolution driven by PrP(C) expression level in transgenic mice

Prions induce a fatal neurodegenerative disease in infected host brain based on the refolding and aggregation of the host-encoded prion protein PrP(C) into PrP(Sc). Structurally distinct PrP(Sc) conformers can give rise to multiple prion strains. Constrained interactions between PrP(C) and different...
