Prion protein & copper interaction (IMAGE)
Caption
The prion protein forms functional condensates that are enriched at cell-cell interfaces. However, long exposure to copper ions/hydrogen peroxide that result in oxidative stress, triggers a liquid-to-solid transition of condensates in vitro and in cells.
