PRNP P39L variant is a rare cause of frontotemporal dementia in Iialian population [PDF]
The missense P39L variant in the prion protein gene (PRNP) has recently been associated with frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Here, we analyzed the presence of the P39L variant in 761 patients with FTD and 719 controls and found a single carrier among ...

Pathogenic mutations in the hydrophobic core of the human prion protein can promote structural instability and misfolding [PDF]
Transmissible spongiform encephalopathies, or prion diseases, are caused by misfolding and aggregation of the prion protein PrP. These diseases can be hereditary in humans and four of the many disease-associated missense mutants of PrP are in the ...
