Prions: Portable prion domains.

R B Wickner1, K L Taylor, H K Edskes, M L Maddelein.   

Abstract

Self-propagating abnormal proteins, prions, have been identified in yeast; asparagine/glutamine-rich 'prion domains' within these proteins can inactivate the linked functional domains; new prion domains and reporters have been used to make 'synthetic prions', leading to discoveries of new natural prions.
