Expression of prion protein in mouse erythroid progenitors and differentiating murine erythroleukemia cells.

Prion diseases have been observed to deregulate the transcription of erythroid genes, and prion protein knockout mice have demonstrated a diminished response to experimental anemia. To investigate the role of the cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) in erythropoiesis, we studied the protein's expres...
