Evidence of Orientation-Dependent Early States of Prion Protein Misfolded Structures from Single Molecule Force Spectroscopy

SIMPLE SUMMARY: Prion diseases are neurodegenerative disorders caused by the amyloidal aggregation of the cellular prion protein. We apply single-molecule force spectroscopy approaches to study the unfolding of prion protein monomers and dimers in different orientations. We find heterogeneous behavi...
