Abstract excerpt
Molecular chaperones constitute a major component of the cellular stress response machinery in neurodegenerative diseases, many of which are characterized by the misfolding and aggregation of endogenous cellular proteins into generic amyloid macrostructures. Heterologous expression of the yeast protein remodelling factor Hsp104 has been proposed as a possible therapeutic approach in such disease conditions....
