The first report of polymorphisms of the prion protein gene (PRNP) in Pekin ducks (Anas platyrhynchos domestica)

BackgroundPrion diseases have been extensively reported in various mammalian species and are caused by a pathogenic prion protein (PrPSc), which is a misfolded version of cellular prion protein (PrPC). Notably, no cases of prion disease have been reported in birds. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (S...
