Description | Prion Protein (106-126) (human) also called Prion Protein Fragment (106-126), human, a peptide fragment of prion, and can induct neuronal apoptosis, antiproteinase K digestion, fiber formation, and mediate the conversion of normal cellular prion protein (PrPc) into pathogenic isoform (PrPSc). Prion Protein 106-126 (human) is generally used as the model to investigate neural degeneration of prion disease. |
