Abstract excerpt
Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of intrinsically disordered proteins has been associated with neurodegenerative diseases, although direct mechanisms are poorly defined. Here, we report on a maturation process for the cellular prion protein (PrPC) that involves a conformational change after LLPS and is regulated by mutations and poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid) (PSCMA), a molecule that has been...
