[New aspects of research upon the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PSI+] prion].

Abstract excerpt

One of the key feature of prions is the ability to be stable in two alternative conformations. Besides the intensively studied mammalian prions, there are also prion proteins present in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Research in this field has lead to opposite hypotheses that explain the sense of presence of [PSI+] prion in yeast cells. Some authors postulate e of role of the prions in the evolution of S....
