Aggregating knowledge about prions and amyloid.

Douglas M Fowler1, Jeffery W Kelly.   

Abstract

Prions, self-propagating protein structures that can be transmitted between cells and different organisms, usually consist of ordered protein aggregates. Alberti et al. (2009) now present a systematic approach for the discovery of new prions that expands the spectrum of their biological functions.
