Novel regulators of PrPC biosynthesis revealed by genome-wide RNA interference.

Novel regulators of PrPC biosynthesis revealed by genome-wide RNA interference.

The cellular prion protein PrPC is necessary for prion replication, and its reduction greatly increases life expectancy in animal models of prion infection. Hence the factors controlling the levels of PrPC may represent therapeutic targets against human prion diseases. Here we performed an arrayed w...
