Characterization of the prion protein gene in axis deer (Axis axis) and implications for susceptibility to chronic wasting disease

Axis deer (Axis axis) occur both in captivity and free-ranging populations in portions of North America, but to-date, no data exist pertaining to the species’ susceptibility to CWD. We sequenced the prion protein gene (PRNP) from axis deer. We then compared axis deer PrP(C) sequences and amino acid...
