A size threshold limits prion transmission and establishes phenotypic diversity.

Science (New York, N.Y.) - 29 Oct 2010

Derdowski Aaron, Sindi Suzanne S, Klaips Courtney L, DiSalvo Susanne, Serio Tricia R

Abstract excerpt

According to the prion hypothesis, atypical phenotypes arise when a prion protein adopts an alternative conformation and persist when that form assembles into self-replicating aggregates. Amyloid formation in vitro provides a model for this protein-misfolding pathway, but the mechanism by which t...
