abstract：:The [PSI+] prion is a self-propagating amyloid of the translation termination factor, Sup35p, of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The N-terminal 253 residues (NM) of this 685-residue protein normally function in regulating mRNA turnover but spontaneously form infectious amyloid in vitro. We converted the three Ile residues i...
