What is Secondary structure of prion proteins in prion disease like Creutz feldt-Jakob disease (CJD)?
Secondary structure of prion proteins in prion disease like Creutz feldt-Jakob disease (CJD) is
How serious is prion disease?
All prion diseases are inevitably fatal; there are no known cures.
How do people get sporadic prion disease?
Patients with sporadic prion diseases may have a susceptibility polymorphism in their PRNP gene, and may have spontaneous mutations forming prion proteins.
What organic molecule is a prion?
A prion is a misfolded protein that fosters misfolding in other normal proteins, thereby resulting in disease.
What is a hereditary form of prion disease?
Prion diseases can also be hereditary, as seen in some cases of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), fatal familial insomnia (FFI), and Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker disease (GSS).

NO. It is caused by a PRION, not a virus.
Is it safe to eat gouda cheese if you have celiac disease?
there is nothing in Gouda Cheese that would cause problems for a person that has celiac.
A disease causing particle made of RNA without a capsid is called?
A Prion. It transmits a mis-folded protein state, and replicates by causing the host's proteins to replicate into its mis-folded pattern. Mad Cow disease is an example of a prion.
