Structure of prion β-oligomers as determined by structural proteomics

The conversion of the native monomeric cellular prion protein (PrPC) into an aggregated pathological β-oligomeric (PrPβ) and an infectious form (PrPSc) is the central element in the development of prion diseases. The structure of the aggregates and the molecular mechanisms of the conformational cha...
