Biomolecular cofactors, including nucleic acids and lipids, promote conversion of the cellular prion protein (PrPC) into pathogenic assemblies (prion scrapie, PrPSc), yet the mechanistic role of specific membrane lipids in the earliest stages remains unclear. Previous work showed that phosphatidic acid (PA) vesicles in...

High hydrostatic pressure provides a unique and sensitive perturbation to protein structure, enabling direct measurement of volume changes associated with folding, misfolding, and assembly. Because pressure perturbs noncovalent forces while preserving covalent integrity, it reveals conformational intermediates that o...
