Methionine sulfoxides on prion protein Helix-3 switch on the alpha-fold destabilization required for conversion.

<h4>Background</h4>The conversion of the cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) into the infectious form (PrP(Sc)) is the key event in prion induced neurodegenerations. This process is believed to involve a multi-step conformational transition from an alpha-helical (PrP(C)) form to a beta-sheet...
