In Vitro Amplification of Misfolded Prion Protein Using Lysate of Cultured Cells

Protein misfolding cyclic amplification (PMCA) recapitulates the prion protein (PrP) conversion process under cell-free conditions. PMCA was initially established with brain material and then with further simplified constituents such as partially purified and recombinant PrP. However, availability o...
