Abstract excerpt
Shadoo and PrP belongs to the same protein family, whose biological function remains poorly understood. Previous experiments reported potential functional redundancies or antagonisms between these two proteins, depending on the tissue analysed. While knockdown experiments suggested the requirement of Shadoo in the absence of PrP during early mouse embryogenesis, knockout ones, on the contrary, highlighted little...
