Cryo-EM of prion strains from the same genotype of host identifies conformational determinants
2022-09-19
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Prion strains in a given type of mammalian host are distinguished by differences in clinical presentation, neuropathological lesions, survival time, and characteristics of the infecting prion protein (PrP) assemblies. Near-atomic structures of prions from two host species with different PrP sequences have been determined but comparisons of distinct prion strains of the same amino acid sequence a...
