SUMMARY

    Recent experimental studies using mass spectrometry analysis coupled with hydrogen-deuterium exchange indicate a PrPSc conformation radically different from PrPC, which is at odds with the "bhelical" and "spiral" models, in which PrPSc retains substantial amounts of native a-helices. Undoubtedly, the capacity to amplify highly infectious prions using recPrP by PMCA will greatly facilitate the isolation of PrPSc for future structural studies. Recent studies in . . .
