PrionW: a server to identify proteins containing glutamine/asparagine rich prion-like domains and their amyloid cores

14 May 2015

Abstract excerpt

Prions are a particular type of amyloids with the ability to self-perpetuate and propagate in vivo. Prion-like conversion underlies important biological processes but is also connected to human disease. Yeast prions are the best understood transmissible amyloids. In these proteins, prion formation from an initially soluble state involves a structural conversion, driven, in many cases, by specific domains enriched...
