Polymorphisms of the prion protein gene in sheep of Inner Mongolia, China.

Virus genes - 1 Aug 2008

Abstract excerpt

Polymorphisms of the prion protein gene (Prnp), especially the amino acid residue alterations at codons 136, 154, and 174, in sheep have been found to be associated with susceptibility to scrapie disease. We investigated Prnp polymorphisms in three local sheep breeds in Inner Mongolia, China. Blood samples were collected from 46 Ujumqin, 34 Sunite, and 22 Mongolian sheep. The genetic DNA of blood samples was...
