摘要

The prion protein (PrP) is the key protein implicated in diseases known as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies. PrP has been shown to bind manganese and copper, the latter being involved in the normal function of the protein. Indeed, upon expression in yeast we noted a major increase in intracellular copper and a decrease in manganese. Interestingly, protease-resistant PrPSc-like protein (PrPres) formation was induced when PrP-expressing yeast cells were grown in copper- and/or manganese-supplemented media. The pattern of PrP banding in SDS-PAGE was dominantly determined by manganese. This conformational transition was stable against EDTA treatment but not in the presence of the copper chelators bathocuproinedisulfonic acid or clioquinol. Conclusively, PrP itself influences manganese and copper metabolism, and a replacement of copper in PrP complexes with manganese is highly likely under the condition of copper depletion or if excess amounts of copper and manganese are present. Taken together, our present study demonstrates the involvement of PrP in the regulation of intracellular metal ion homeostasis and uncovers copper and, more severely, manganese ions as in vivo risk factors for the conversion into PrPSc.
