Human prion protein, molecular model. Computer model showing the structure of the V209M variant of the human major prion protein with residues 90-231. Prions are abnormal proteins that cause a group of fatal neurodegenerative diseases including BSE in cows and CJD in humans. Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour-coded: carbon (grey), hydrogen (white), nitrogen (blue), oxygen (red) and sulphur (yellow). | |
