Three rare, fatal Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease cases were reported in Hood River County, Oregon. Two people have died. There's ...

In the fight against diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, scientists have long struggled to predict how certain ...

Our project focuses on analyzing how proteins assemble on membranes using Atomic Force Microscopy. With high-resolution, fast-scan Atomic Force Microscopy, we will directly visualize the structure and ...

Prions are best described as misfolded proteins with an ability to transmit their misfolded shape onto normal variants of the same protein. Let's dive into the many fatal neurodegenerative ...

Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker disease and prion protein cerebral amyloid angiopathy add two more ... which is made of 3R tau and thus lacks the R2 domain. In the P301T case, a structure similar to ...

Scientists have long struggled to target proteins that lack defined structure and are involved in cancer, neurodegenerative disorders like Parkinson's disease, and other serious illnesses.
