Sulfated glycans and elevated temperature stimulate PrP(Sc)-dependent cell-free formation of protease-resistant prion protein

A conformational conversion of the normal, protease- sensitive prion protein (PrP-sen or PrP(C)) to a protease-resistant form (PrP-res or PrP(Sc)) is commonly thought to be required in transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs). Endogenous sulfated glycosaminoglycans are associated with PrP-re...
