Genet Sel Evol . 2008 Aug; 40(5):553-61. PMID: 18694550
Scrapie eradication efforts cost 18 million dollars annually in the United States and rely heavily upon PRNP genotyping of sheep. Genetic resistance might reduce goat scrapie and limit the risk...

J Gen Virol . 2006 Mar; 87(Pt 4):1035-1041. PMID: 16528055
Placentae from scrapie-infected ewes have been shown to accumulate PrPSc when the genotype of the fetus is of a susceptible genotype (VRQ/VRQ, ARQ/VRQ or ARQ/ARQ). Cotyledons from fetuses of genotypes...

Neuroreport . 2006 Jan; 17(2):125-9. PMID: 16407757
Numerous sheep with the prion gene (PRNP) that encodes for 171QQ develop scrapie, a neurodegenerative prion disease of sheep. Relatively few cases of scrapie-affected sheep with PRNP genetics that encode...

Mol Microbiol . 2003 Jun; 48(6):1665-77. PMID: 12791146
OspA, OspB and OspC are the major outer surface proteins of Borrelia burgdorferi that are differentially synthesized in response to environmental conditions, including culture temperature. We found that DNA was...
