Resistance to classical scrapie in experimentally challenged goats carrying mutation K222 of the prion protein gene
In this study we investigated the resistance conferred by PRNP variant K222 using a natural Italian goat scrapie isolate to intracerebrally challenge five goats carrying genotype Q/Q 222 (wild type) and five goats carrying genotype Q/K 222.
