Accessibility of a critical prion protein region involved in strain recognition and its implications for the early detection of prions

Human prion diseases are characterized by the accumulation in the brain of proteinase K (PK)-resistant prion protein designated PrP27-30 detectable by the 3F4 antibody against human PrP109-112.
