Glycosaminoglycan sulphation affects the seeded misfolding of a mutant prion protein.
<h4>Background</h4>The accumulation of protease resistant conformers of the prion protein (PrP(res)) is a key pathological feature of prion diseases. Polyanions, including RNA and glycosaminoglycans have been identified as factors that contribute to the propagation, transmission and path...
