Dr. Wong's laboratory is interested in examining if and how the absence of prion protein expression could affect the cellular glycosylation enzymes during development. Prion protein is a glycoprotein
The cellular prion protein, designated PrPC, is a membrane glycoprotein expressed abundantly in brains and to a lesser extent in other tissues. Conformational conversion of PrPC into the amyloidogenic
The nuclear-encoded Sup35p protein is responsible for the prion-like [PSI(+)] determinant of yeast, with Sup35p existing largely as a high molecular weight aggregate in [PSI(+)] strains. Here we show
A. Protein lysates were harvested from fibroblasts infected with TB40/E wild type (WT), UL88-deficient, or UL88Rev HCMV at MOI of 3 at 96hpi. Blots were probed for viral proteins UL88, pp28, and tubul
