Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative disorders characterized by the conversion of the cellular prion protein (PrP^C) into a misfolded prion form, which is believed to disrupt the cellular membranes. However, the exact mechanisms underlying prion toxicity, including the formation of membrane pores, are not fully understood. The prion protein consists of two domains: a globular domain (GD) and a flexible N-terminus (FT) domain. Although a proximal polybasic amino acid (FT(23-31) sequence of FT is a prerequisite for cellular membrane permeabilization, other functional domain regions may modulate its effects. Through single-channel electrical recordings and cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM), we discovered that the FT(23-50) fragment forms pore-shaped oligomers and plays a dominant role in membrane permeabilization within the full-length mouse prion protein (mPrP(23-230)). In contrast, the FT(51-110) domain or the C-terminal domain downregulate the channel activity of FT(23-50) and mPrP(23-230). The addition of prion mimetic antibody, POM1 significantly amplifies mPrP(23-230) membrane permeabilization, whereas POM1_Y104A, a mutant that binds to PrP but cannot elicit toxicity, has a negligible effect on membrane permeabilization. Additionally, the anti-N-terminal antibody POM2 or Cu²⁺ binds to the FT domain, subsequently enhancing the FT(23-110) channel activity. Importantly, our setup provides a novel approach without an external fused protein to examine the channel activity of truncated PrP in the lipid membranes. We therefore propose that the primary N-terminal residues are essential for membrane permeabilization, while other functional segments of PrP play a vital role in modulating the pathological effects of PrP-mediated neurotoxicity.
