Scope and Contents

Contents

The atomic structure of the infectious, protease-resistant, β-sheet-rich and fibrillar mammalian prion remains unknown. Through the cryo-EM method MicroED, we reveal the subångström- resolution structure of a protofibril formed by a wild-type segment from the β2–α2 loop of the bank vole prion protein. In this work, the structure of this protofibril...
