"Prions are infectious proteins responsible for diseases such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob
disease and "mad cow" disease. They are misfolded versions of normal proteins that
replicate by converting their normal cellular counterparts into abnormal prion proteins
that disrupt cell function and can be transmitted to other cells and individuals.
This book examines our understanding of their structure, biochemistry, and pathophysiology.
Highlights include: Experimental approaches to neurodegeneration -- Prions, Chaperones,
and Proteostasis in Yeast -- The Aggregation and Prion-like Properties of Misfolded
Tumor Suppressors: Is Cancer a Prion-like Disease? -- Neuropathology of NDs"
