Protective Effect of Val(129)-PrP against Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy but not Variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease

Bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) is the only known zoonotic prion that causes variant Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (vCJD) in humans. The major risk determinant for this disease is the polymorphic codon 129 of the human prion protein (Hu-PrP), where either methionine (Met(129)) or valine (Val(129)...
