A processed pseudogene contributes to apparent mule deer prion gene heterogeneity.

Gene - 4 Feb 2004

Brayton Kelly A, O'Rourke Katherine I, Lyda Amy K, Miller Michael W, Knowles Donald P

Abstract excerpt

Pathogenesis and transmission of the prion disorders (transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, TSEs) are mediated by a modified isoform of the prion protein (PrP). Prion protein gene (PRNP) alleles associated with relative susceptibility to TSE have been identified in sheep, humans and possibly elk. Comparable data have not been derived for mule deer, a species susceptible to the TSE chronic wasting disease...
