Detection and localisation of PrP(Sc) in the liver of sheep infected with scrapie and bovine spongiform encephalopathy. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2011
Prions are largely contained within the nervous and lymphoid tissue of transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) infected animals. However, following advances in diagnostic sensitivity, PrP(Sc), a marker for prion disease, can now be located in a ...

The Exceptions to the Central Dogma of Biology—Bending the Rules and Extending the Scope

Natural Sciences, Volume 6, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The central dogma is an organizing framework for how information flows in biological systems. First presented in 1957 by Francis Crick in his talk “On Protein Synthesis” as a fundamental hypothesis of how information is transferred from DNA to proteins but not out of proteins, it is now introduced in cell biology textbooks as three sequential ...

Comparative studies on the thermostability of five strains of transmissible-spongiform-encephalopathy agent [PDF]

, 2007
The causal infectious agents of TSEs (transmissible spongiform encephalopathies or prion diseases) are renowned for their resistance to complete inactivation. Survival of TSE infectivity after autoclaving potentially compromises many procedures where TSE
