Protein misfolding cyclic amplification PMCA

In 2001 Soto and colleagues described a new type of cell-free prion conversion reaction called protein-misfolding cyclic amplification (PMCA) which has greatly improved efficiency, continuity, and sensitivity compared to the initial CFC reactions [11]. In the typical PMCA reaction, crude brain extracts are used as a source of the PrPc which is induced to convert by prions or PrPres in the test sample. Under these conditions, PrPres can be amplified to levels that are detectable... [Pg.122]
