From: Two novel amino acid substitutions in highly conserved regions of prion protein (PrP) and a high frequency of a scrapie protective variant in native Ethiopian goats

Fig. 1

Schematic of PrP with the two novel PrP amino acid substitutions in bold. The green areas represent the 3 α-helixes; ß1 and ß2 (in red) are the ß-sheets of the PrP. The amino acid sequence of PrP corresponding to residues 104–206 are from the PrP of Capra hircus sequence (accession number P52113). The sequence is expressed with one letter code of each amino acid (see abbreviations list)
