A heritable switch in carbon source utilization driven by an unusual yeast prion.

Genes & development - 1 Oct 2009

Brown Jessica C S, Lindquist Susan

Abstract excerpt

Several well-characterized fungal proteins act as prions, proteins capable of multiple conformations, each with different activities, at least one of which is self-propagating. Through such self-propagating changes in function, yeast prions act as protein-based elements of phenotypic inheritance....
