Exploring the role of the molecular chaperone Hsp104 in yeast [PSI+] prion propagation and transmission
[PSI+] is the prion form of the Sup35 protein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The molecular Hsp 104 chaperone is involved in the propagation of the [PSI+] by dissolving Sup35p prion fibres into the small seeds (propagons) needed to generate a new round propagation. Overexpression of the HSP104 gene res...
