The first meta-analysis of the G96S single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the prion protein gene (PRNP) with chronic wasting disease in white-tailed deer

The first meta-analysis of the G96S single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the prion protein gene (PRNP) with chronic wasting disease in white-tailed deer

BackgroundPrion diseases are irreversible infectious neurodegenerative diseases caused by a contagious form of prion protein (PrPSc). Since chronic wasting disease (CWD)-infected white-tailed deer are strong carriers of the prion seed through corpses via scavenger animals, preemptive control based o...
