Amyloid-Inducing Agents via Metabolite Self-Assembly Expands the Boundary of Prion Concept beyond Proteins.

The prion concept fundamentally signifies the intrinsic cross-seeding potential of misfolded protein-generated amyloid entities to efficiently induce amyloid aggregation in normally folded proteins leading to formation of cytotoxic amyloid structures…
