Spontaneous generation of rapidly transmissible prions in transgenic mice expressing wild-type bank vole prion protein

Currently, there are no animal models of the most common human prion disorder, sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), in which prions are formed spontaneously from wild-type (WT) prion protein (PrP).
