Met(166)‐Glu(168) residues in human PrP β2‐α2 loop account for evolutionary resistance to prion infection

AIMS: The amino acid sequence of prion protein (PrP) is a key determinant in the transmissibility of prion diseases. While PrP sequence is highly conserved among mammalian species, minor changes in the PrP amino acid sequence may confer alterations in the transmissibility of prion diseases. Classica...
