Self-propagating, protease-resistant, recombinant prion protein conformers with or without in vivo pathogenicity

Prions, characterized by self-propagating protease-resistant prion protein (PrP) conformations, are agents causing prion disease. Recent studies generated several such self-propagating protease-resistant recombinant PrP (rPrP-res) conformers. While some cause prion disease, others fail to induce any...
