Yeast prions form infectious amyloid inclusion bodies in bacteria

25 Jun 2012

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Prions were first identified as infectious proteins associated with fatal brain diseases in mammals. However, fungal prions behave as epigenetic regulators that can alter a range of cellular processes. These proteins propagate as self-perpetuating amyloid aggregates being an example of structural inheritance. The best-characterized examples are the Sup35 and Ure2 yeast proteins, corresponding to...
