Novel Polymorphisms and Genetic Characteristics of the Prion Protein Gene (<i>PRNP</i>) in Dogs— A Resistant Animal of Prion Disease

Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) have been reported in a wide range of species. However, TSE infection in natural cases has never been reported in dogs. Previous studies have reported that polymorphisms of the prion protein gene (<i>PRNP</i>) have a direct impact on the s...
