The nature of the scrapie agent: the virus theory.

Proceedings of the Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine. Society for Experimental Biology and Medicine (New York, N.Y.) - 1 Jul 1996

Abstract excerpt

All spongiform encephalopathies (SEs) are slow virus-transmissible infectious disorders of the brain. Tubulofilamentous particles/scrapie-associated fibrils (SAF) are ultrastructural markers, while protease-resistant protein (PrP) is a protein marker. The PrP molecules aggregate to form SAF, which occurs as an internal part of the tubulofilamentous particle termed nemavirus (NVP). Each NVP consists of three...
