Pharmacological chaperone reshapes the energy landscape for folding and aggregation of the prion protein

Small-molecule chaperones that can prevent protein misfolding have potential applications for treating diseases such as Alzheimer’s and ALS. Here the authors use high-resolution force spectroscopy to gain insight into the mechanism of action of an iron-tetrapyrrole with anti-prion properties.
