This research, conducted at
Centre for Research in Agricultural Genomics (CRAG), may also help to better understand how protein-misfolding in nervous system diseases start, spread, and aggravate. The result of this research with plants could be transferred to new universal methods to correct the protein misfolding and thus impact the search for solutions to degenerative diseases that, to this day, remain incurable.
