Function Prions are proteins with compromised folds in their structure. They can convert a normal protein into a replicate of their own abnormal form. This can lead to deadly degenerative diseases of the brain. Disease Prions are linked to Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. Structural highlights In this scene original structure of the mammalian Prp protein is portrayed. In this scene, the side chain for the protein is emphasized in a ball and stick illustration. TextToBeDisplayed In this scene, H190, F201, Y152, Y148, Y160, and Y158 are labeled on the protein. They are responsible for the tight binding of H3 to H1. The different positions: H1, H2, and H3 respective helices contain these side chains in the protein. This is a sample scene created with SAT to color by Group, and another to make a transparent representation of the protein. You can make your own scenes on SAT starting from scratch or loading and editing one of these sample scenes.
