PK-sensitive PrP(Sc) Is Infectious and Shares Basic Structural Features with PK-resistant PrP(Sc)

One of the main characteristics of the transmissible isoform of the prion protein (PrP(Sc)) is its partial resistance to proteinase K (PK) digestion. Diagnosis of prion disease typically relies upon immunodetection of PK-digested PrP(Sc) following Western blot or ELISA. More recently, researchers de...
