Background
Prion protein PrP is a membrane glycosylphosphatidylinositol(GPI) anchored glycoprotein highly expressed in neuron and glia cells as well as immune and reproductive cells. Mutations in the octapeptide repeat regions as well as elsewhere in this gene have been associated with neurodegenerative diseases such as Creutzfeldt Jakob disease, fatal familial insomnia, Gerstmann Straussler disease, Huntington disease like 1, and kuru. The infectious isoform of PrPC, known as PrPSc, is able to convert normal PrPPC proteins into the infectious isoform, which is insoluble amyloid aggregate, by changing their. Mature PrP protein in human consists of 209 amino acids. Several forms exist, one cell surface form anchored via and two forms, therefore multiple bands are observed in SDS-PAGE (Figure). conformation topological glycolipid transmembrane
