Ligands binding to the prion protein induce its proteolytic release with therapeutic potential in neurodegenerative proteinopathies

The prion protein (PrP(C)) is a central player in neurodegenerative diseases, such as prion diseases or Alzheimer’s disease. In contrast to disease-promoting cell surface PrP(C), extracellular fragments act neuroprotective by blocking neurotoxic disease-associated protein conformers. Fittingly, PrP(...
