Abstract
⺠Prion peptides based on the 127-147 region of bovine, hamster and elk were studied. ⺠All of the peptides self-assembled into fibrillar states. ⺠Fibril conformations were highlighted by electron microscopy 3D reconstructions. ⺠The elk peptide had distinct electrophysiological and conformational properties.
