Reversible unfolding of infectious prion assemblies reveals the existence of an oligomeric elementary brick

Mammalian prions, the pathogens that cause transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, propagate by self-perpetuating the structural information stored in the abnormally folded, aggregated conformer (PrP(Sc)) of the host-encoded prion protein (PrP(C)).
