misfolded proteins which can cause normal versions to also misfold
Prions are are viral the particles which are characterized by the presence of only protein. These proteins are folded proteins and when they enter a host cell, because the proteins of host cell to become misfolded and cause neurodegenerative disorders.
These are one of the smallest known non Cellular viral entities. They do not have any genetic material.
Diseases caused by prions are Kuru disease, bovine encephalopathy etc.
Please rate.

35) Refer to the treatments listed to answer the question. You isolate an infectious substance capable of causing discase in plants, but you do not know whether the infectious agent is a bacterium, virus, or prion. You have four methods at your disposa to analyze the substance and determine the nature of the infectious agent. I. Treat the substance with enzymes that destroy all nucleic acids, and then determine whether the substance is still infectious. II. Filter the substance to...
