A cDNA clone encoding bovine scrapie-associated fibril protein, PrP, from a bovine brain cDNA library and six amplified genomic DNA clones of bovine PrP were characterized. These clones possessed specific characteristics observed in other animal PrP genes. However, the bovine PrP was divided into two types by the number of repeats. One possessed four octapeptide repetitive sequences, like other animal PrP genes, and consisted of 256 amino acids; the other had five such repetitive sequences and 264 amino acids. The amino acid sequence of the former bovine PrP agreed with that of sheep PrP up to the 165th amino acid from the N-terminus. Bovine PrP cDNA introduced into mouse L-929 cells were stably expressed. The expression level of recombinant bovine PrP in the cells judged by immunofluorescence was higher than that of authentic mouse PrP. The recombinant PrP comigrated with authentic bovine PrP in SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, suggesting that the recombinant product was fully glycosylated in L-929 cells. Distinct bundles of the intermediate filaments were frequently seen at the perinuclear region of the cells.

D011328 Prions Small proteinaceous infectious particles which resist inactivation by procedures that modify NUCLEIC ACIDS and contain an abnormal isoform of a cellular protein which is a major and necessary component. The abnormal (scrapie) isoform is PrPSc (PRPSC PROTEINS) and the cellular isoform PrPC (PRPC PROTEINS). The primary amino acid sequence of the two isoforms is identical. Human diseases caused by prions include CREUTZFELDT-JAKOB SYNDROME; GERSTMANN-STRAUSSLER SYNDROME; and INSOMNIA, FATAL FAMILIAL. Mink Encephalopathy Virus,Prion,Encephalopathy Virus, Mink
