Prions can exist as different strains that consist of conformational variants of the misfolded, pathogenic prion protein isoform PrP
Sc
. Defined by stably transmissible biological and biochemical properties, strains have been identified in a spectrum of prion diseases, including chronic wasting disease (CWD) of wild and farmed cervids. CWD i...
