Molecular cloning and polymorphism analysis of the prion protein gene in Tan sheep of Ningxia, China. | The resistance or susceptibility of sheep to scrapie is associated with polymorphisms of the prion protein gene (PRNP), particularly, single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in amino acid positions 136, 154 and 171. The prion protein (PrP) gene sequence and the deduced amino acid alignment of prion protein in Tan sheep, a local Chinese sheep breed traditionally raised in Ningxia, northwestern China, were determined and variability of the PrP amino acids sequence was analyzed in this study. The Pr ... | 2011 | 21722718 |
