| Abstract: |
The article presents a study of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD) with the V203I mutation and M129V polymorphism of the prion protein gene ( PRNP) and a 17 kDa prion protein fragment. It states that Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease associated with the V203I mutation was first described with clinical and pathological aspects in a 69-year old Italian man who was homozygous for Met at codon 129 of PRNP. |
