The yeast Sup35NM domain propagates as a prion in mammalian cells.
Prions are infectious, self-propagating amyloid-like protein aggregates of mammals and fungi. We have studied aggregation propensities of a yeast prion domain in cell culture to gain insights into general mechanisms of prion replication in mammalian cells. Here, we report the artificial transmission of a yeast prion across a phylogenetic kingdom. HA epitope-tagged yeast Sup35p prion domain NM w...
متن کاملPrion Proliferation with Unbounded Polymerization Rates
A model for prion replication is studied. We prove global existence of weak solutions for unbounded polymerization and degradation rates. For bounded degradation rates, the solutions are shown to be classical.
متن کاملThe shape of the polymerization rate in the prion equation
We consider a polymerization (fragmentation) model with size-dependent parameters involved in prion proliferation. Using power laws for the different rates of this model, we recover the shape of the polymerization rate using experimental data. The technique used is inspired from [30], where the fragmentation dependence on prion strains is investigated. Our improvement is to use power laws for t...
متن کاملPressure-induced polymerization of acrylic acid: a Raman spectroscopic study.
We report here the first in-situ Raman spectroscopic study of pressure-induced structural and polymeric transformations of acrylic acid. Two crystalline phases (I and II) were observed upon compression to approximately 0.3 and approximately 2.7 GPa. Phase I can be characterized with a single s-cis molecular conformation with possibly a similar structure to the low-temperature phase, while phase...
متن کاملIR and UV Spectroscopic Analysis of C20 Carbon Nanostructures
Infrared (IR) and ultraviolet (UV) spectroscopic analysis of eight structural isomers of C20 carbon nanostructures, i.e. ring, tadpole, bow-tie, dumb-bell, spiro, propellane, bowl and cage, were performed at different levels of theory including semi-empirical (AM1 and PM3), Hartree-Fock (HF/6-31++G, 6-31++G**) and density functional theory (B3LYP/6-31++G, 6-31++G**). A broad range of IR spectra...
