Conservation of strain properties of bank vole-adapted chronic wasting disease in the absence of glycosylation and membrane anchoring

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: expressing transgenic mice TgVole (1×) demonstrated that the strain's distinctive rapid propagation properties were preserved. These findings suggest that neither GPI anchoring nor glycosylation are essential for maintaining CWD-vole strain properties, supporting the concept that strain characteristics are primarily encoded in the protein's misfolded structure.
