Prion protein (PrP) gene-knockout cell lines: insight into functions of the PrP

Elucidation of prion protein (PrP) functions is crucial to fully understand prion diseases. A major approach to studying PrP functions is the use of PrP gene-knockout (Prnp(−/−)) mice. So far, six types of Prnp(−/−) mice have been generated, demonstrating the promiscuous functions of PrP. Recently,...
