Scope and Contents

Contents

The cellular prion protein (PrP
C
) comprises a natively unstructured N‐terminal domain, including a metal‐binding octarepeat region (OR) and a linker, followed by a C‐terminal domain that misfolds to form PrP
S
c
in Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease. PrP
C
β‐endoproteolysis to the C2 fragment allows PrP
S
c
formation, while α...
