Block and random copolymers of y-benzyl Irglutamate and glycine were studied by optical rotatory dispersion methods in order to ascertain the extent and stability of the a-helix formed by these polymers in appropriate solvent mixtures. Results indicate that when in solution such polymers do contain
Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSE) or "prion diseases" have been related to the "protein-only hypothesis", which suggests that the "scrapie form (PrP Sc )" of the prion protein (PrP) is the TSE infectious agent. The nmr structure of the ubiquitous benign cellular form of PrP (PrP C ) co
