Amazing video, very informative. Thanks for sharing. Resteemed.

Happy I could help someone learn something new; science really is a marvelous thing.

Prions are also somewhat similar to viroids, but they are made of protein and they lack either DNA or RNA. Moreover, they can produce disease in humans (like the Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease or mad cow disease).

Thanks for sharing! I was not aware of that.

Insane stuff.

It truly is.
