The molecular basis of interaction domains of full-length PrP with lipid membranes.

Overview
abstract
PrP-lipid membrane interactions are critical to PrP structural conversion and neurotoxicity, but its molecular mechanism remains unclear. A two-dimensional histogram of force-distance curves and a worm-like chain model revealed three binding regions at the PrP N-terminal, providing the molecular basis for understanding the interactions between full-length PrP and lipid membranes.
