PrPC Directly Interacts with Proteins Involved in Signaling Pathways* [PDF]
The cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) is a conserved glycoprotein predominantly expressed in neuronal cells. Its purpose in living cells is still enigmatic. To elucidate on its cellular function, we performed a yeast two-hybrid screen for interactors.

Recent studies suggest that the disease isoform of prion protein (PrPSc) is non-neurotoxic in the absence of cellular isoform of prion protein (PrPC), indicating that PrPC may participate directly in the neurodegenerative damage by itself. Meanwhile, transgenic mice harboring a high-copy-number of wild-type mouse (Mo) PrPC develop a spontaneous ...

Bovine PrPC directly interacts with αB-crystalline [PDF]
We used a bovine brain cDNA library to perform a yeast two-hybrid assay with bovine mature PrPC as bait. The screening result showed that αB-crystalline interacted with PrPC.

Isolation and characterization of full-length recombinant cattle PrPC protein
Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine, 2006Full-length Bos taurus PrPC protein was obtained in the eu- and prokaryotic expression systems. Immunoblotting and indirect enzyme immunoassay demonstrated high specificity and antigenic activity of full-length proteins in the reactions with monoclonal antibodies (anti-SAF-32 and VRQ-84).

Prion protein (PrPc) promotes β-amyloid plaque formation
Neurobiology of Aging, 2005Prion protein (PrP) has been localized to amyloid-beta (Abeta) senile plaques in aging and Alzheimer disease, but it is unknown whether PrP is directly involved in plaque formation or represents a reaction to amyloid deposition. To evaluate possible functional effects of PrP in Abeta plaque formation, we analyzed bigenic mice (TgCRND8/Tg7), carrying ...
