Structural features distinguishing infectious ex vivo mammalian prions from non-infectious fibrillar assemblies generated in vitro
Seeded polymerisation of proteins forming amyloid fibres and their spread in tissues has been implicated in the pathogenesis of multiple neurodegenerative diseases: so called “prion-like” mechanisms. While ex vivo mammalian prions, composed of multichain assemblies of misfolded host-encoded prion pr...
