PrPs: Proteins with a purpose: Lessons from the zebrafish.

Prion - 1 Jan 2000

Málaga-Trillo Edward, Sempou Emily

Abstract excerpt

The best-known attribute of the prion protein (PrP) is its tendency to misfold into a rogue isoform. Much less understood is how this misfolded isoform causes deadly brain illnesses. Neurodegeneration in prion disease is often seen as a consequence of abnormal PrP function yet, amazingly little i...
