Hiding in plain sight: vesicle-mediated export and transmission of prion-like proteins
Infectious proteins or prions are non-native conformations of proteins that are the causative agents of devastating neurodegenerative diseases in humans and heritable traits in filamentous fungi and yeasts. Prion proteins form highly ordered self-perpetuating fibrillar aggregates that traffic vertic...
