Abstract excerpt

To characterize amino acid polymorphisms in sheep prion protein (PrP), we analyzed the PrP genes from 271 sheep of 4 breeds (Khalkh, Yeroo, Orkhon and Khangai) raised in central Mongolia (Tuv, Uvurkhangai and Selenge prefectures). A total of 16 genotypes and 8 allelic variants of the PrP gene at codons 112, 136, 154 and 171 were found. At codon 171, 1.8% of the sheep had arginine/arginine (R/R) (resistant to...
