Anti-Prion Drug mPPIg5 Inhibits PrPC Conversion to PrPSc
Prion diseases, also known as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, are a group of fatal neurodegenerative diseases that include scrapie in sheep, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in cattle and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in humans. The 'protein only hypothesis' advocates that PrP(Sc), an abnormal isoform of the cellular protein PrP(C), is the main and possibly sole component of ...
متن کاملIdentifying critical sites of PrPc-PrPSc interaction in prion-infected cells by dominant-negative inhibition
A direct physical interaction of the prion protein isoforms is a key element in prion conversion. Which sites interact first and which parts of PrP(c) are converted subsequently is presently not known in detail. We hypothesized that structural changes induced by PrP(Sc) interaction occur in more than one interface and subsequently propagate within the PrP(C) substrate, like epicenters of struct...

این مطالعه به دو روش کمی و کیفی و با هدف بررسی استراتژی های فراشناختی فراگیران زبان انگلیسی به عنوان زبان خارجی در دو آزمون نوشتن و نوشتن ترکیبی انجام پذیرفت. در بخش کمی برای سنجش میزان استراتژی های فراشناختی از یک پرسشنامه که بر اساس مدل بکمن و پالمر (1996) ساخته شده بود استفاده شد. پایایی و روایی سازه ی پرسشنامه هنگام مطالعه ی پایلوت و روایی محتوای آن با جمع آوری نظرات نُه متخصص در رشته سنجیده...
Nanopore Analysis of Wild-Type and Mutant Prion Protein (PrPC): Single Molecule Discrimination and PrPC Kinetics
Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative diseases associated with the conversion of cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) in the central nervous system into the infectious isoform (PrP(Sc)). The mechanics of conversion are almost entirely unknown, with understanding stymied by the lack of an atomic-level structure for PrP(Sc). A number of pathogenic PrP(C) mutants exist that are characterized by an...
