Prions, prionoid complexes and amyloids: the bad, the good and something in between

Prions, prionoid complexes and amyloids: the bad, the good and something in between

Prions are infectious agents causing transmissible spongiform encephalopathies in humans and animals. These protein-based particles template conformational changes in a host-encoded prion protein to an insoluble self-like conformation. Prions are also present in yeast, where they support protein-b...
