Topological confinement by a membrane anchor suppresses phase separation into protein aggregates: implications for prion diseases

Kalpshree Gogte, Fatemeh Mamashli, María Georgina Herrera, Simon Kriegler, Verian Bader, Janine Kamps, Prerna Grover, Roland Winter, Konstanze F. Winklhofer, Jörg Tatzelt

This study shows that membrane anchors prevent protein misfolding and aggregation by restricting conformational freedom, with implications for prion diseases.
