Secretory pathway retention of mutant prion protein induces p38-MAPK activation and lethal disease in mice

Secretory pathway retention of mutant prion protein induces p38-MAPK activation and lethal disease in mice

Misfolding of proteins in the biosynthetic pathway in neurons may cause disturbed protein homeostasis and neurodegeneration. The prion protein (PrPC) is a GPI-anchored protein that resides at the plasma membrane and may be misfolded to PrPSc leading to prion diseases. We show that a deletion in the...
