Identification of amino acid variation in the prion protein associated with classical scrapie in Canadian dairy goats

BACKGROUND: A clear association of amino acid variation in the prion protein gene (PRNP) with susceptibility and resistance to classical scrapie exists in sheep, but not in goats. In this study we examined DNA sequence variation in the PRNP of 149 animals from two scrapie-infected herds of Saanen da...
