The underlying pathogenic mechanisms of prion infection are not well characterized. To study the effect of prion infection on gene expression in neuronal cell cultures, a neuroblastoma (N2a) cell clone was infected with either the mouse adapted prion strain 22L or exposed to uninfected brain homogen...

Prions cause transmissible neurodegenerative diseases and replicate by conformational conversion of normal, benign forms of prion protein (PrPC) to disease-causing PrPSc isoforms. A systems approach to disease postulates that disease arises from the pathological perturbation (genetic and/or environm...

A comparison of prion infected and non-infected samples from neuroblastoma cells (N2a), and a comparison of prion infected and non-infected samples from hypothalmus cells (GT1). 11 dual-color DNA-chip hybridizations of cDNAs were made. Keywords: other

Prion infection results in progressive neurodegeneration of the central nervous system invariably resulting in death. The pathological effects of prion diseases in the brain are morphologically well defined, such as gliosis, vacuolation, and the accumulation of disease-specific protease-resistant p...

A key event in the pathogenic process of prion diseases is the conversion of the cellular prion protein (PrPC) to an abnormal and protease-resistant isoform (PrPSc). Mice lacking PrP are resistant to prion infection, and down-regulation of PrPC during prion infection prevents neuronal loss and the p...

Prion infection in animals results in neurodegeneration and eventually death. To examine the cellular impact of Prion disease, we profiled non-proliferative fully differentiated C2C12 cells, which can replicate prions to high levels. Results suggest that accumulation of high levels of PrPSc in C2C12...

Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders that include bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) and scrapie in animals and Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) in humans. They are characterized by long incubation periods, variation in which is determined by many factors including genetic backgro...

Prions are infectious proteins that can adopt a structural conformation different from that of the normal protein. This change of conformation is then propagated among other molecules of the same protein. Prions are associated with neurodegenerative diseases in mammals, but are also found in fungi (...
ORGANISM(S): Saccharomyces cerevisiae 
The yeast Sup35 protein is a subunit of the translation termination factor, and its conversion to the [PSI+] prion state leads to more translational read-through. Although extensive studies have been done on [PSI+], changes at the proteomic level have not been performed exhaustively. We therefore us...
