Prion Protein in Stem Cells: A Lipid Raft Component Involved in the Cellular Differentiation Process

The prion protein (PrP) is an enigmatic molecule with a pleiotropic effect on different cell types; it is localized stably in lipid raft microdomains and it is able to recruit downstream signal transduction pathways by its interaction with various biochemical partners. Since its discovery, this lipi...
