Structures of Pathological and Functional Amyloids and Prions, a Solid-State NMR Perspective
Infectious proteins or prions are a remarkable class of pathogens, where pathogenicity and infectious state correspond to conformational transition of a protein fold. The conformational change translates into the formation by the protein of insoluble amyloid aggregates, associated in humans with var...
