Neurotropic influenza A virus infection causes prion protein misfolding into infectious prions in neuroblastoma cells

Scientific Reports, 2021
Misfolding of the cellular prion protein, PrPC, into the amyloidogenic isoform, PrPSc, which forms infectious protein aggregates, the so-called prions, is a key pathogenic event in prion diseases.

Research Progress on Fungal Sesterterpenoids Biosynthesis

Journal of Fungi, 2022
Sesterterpenes are 25-carbon terpenoids formed by the cyclization of dimethyl allyl diphosphate (DMAPP) and isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) as structural units by sesterterpenes synthases.
