Effects of a naturally occurring amino acid substitution in bovine PrP: a model for inherited prion disease in a natural host species

OBJECTIVE: The most common hereditary prion disease is human Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), associated with a mutation in the prion gene resulting in a glutamic acid to lysine substitution at position 200 (E200K) in the prion protein. Models of E200K CJD in transgenic mice have proven interesting...
