W8, a new Sup35 prion strain, transmits distinctive information with a conserved assembly scheme.

Prion - 1 Jan 2015

Abstract excerpt

Prion strains are different self-propagating conformers of the same infectious protein. Three strains of the [PSI] prion, infectious forms of the yeast Sup35 protein, have been previously characterized in our laboratory. Here we report the discovery of a new [PSI] strain, named W8. We demonstrate its robust cellular propagation as well as the protein-only transmission. To reveal strain-specific sequence...
