The PrP-like proteins Shadoo and Doppel.

Topics in current chemistry - 1 Jan 2011

Westaway David, Daude Nathalie, Wohlgemuth Serene, Harrison Paul

Abstract excerpt

An almost unique place within protein databases, twenty-five years of study has underscored the enigmatically subtle role of PrP(C) in normal cell biology. It seems that PrP has evolved (and survived) to perform a function that does not have a precedent amongst transmembrane cell-surface proteins, perhaps representing a new type of plasma membrane ecosystem. In a context where we await a clarifying insight to...
