Cryo-EM structure of a human prion fibril with a hydrophobic, protease-resistant core

Self-templating assemblies of the human prion protein are clinically associated with transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. Here we present the cryo-EM structure of a denaturant- and protease-resistant fibril formed in vitro spontaneously by a 9.7kDa unglycosylated fragment of the human prion pr...
