Spontaneous generation of prions and transmissible PrP amyloid in a humanised transgenic mouse model of A117V GSS
Inherited prion diseases are caused by autosomal dominant coding mutations in the human prion protein (PrP) gene (PRNP) and account for about 15% of human prion disease cases worldwide. The proposed mechanism is that the mutation predisposes to conformational change in the expressed protein, leading...
