Description
PRNP Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody against PRNP. The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored glycoprotein that tends to aggregate into rod-like structures. The encoded protein contains a highly unstable region of five tandem octapeptide repeats. This gene is found on chromosome 20, approximately 20 kbp upstream of a gene which encodes a biochemically and structurally similar protein to the one encoded by this gene. Mutations in the repeat region as well as elsewhere in this gene have been associated with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, fatal familial insomnia, Gerstmann-Straussler disease, Huntington disease-like 1, and kuru. An overlapping open reading frame has been found for this gene that encodes a smaller, structurally unrelated protein, AltPrp. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Descripción
The PRNP gene, encoding the prion protein (PrP), plays a critical role in both neurobiology and disease. This gene is located on chromosome 20 in humans and encodes the cellular prion protein, PrP^C. Prion proteins are unique in their ability to exist in multiple conformations, including a pathological form, PrP^Sc, associated with prion diseases. Prion diseases, also known as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), are neurodegenerative disorders marked by rapidly progressive neuronal loss and a spongiform appearance in brain tissue. TSEs include diseases such as Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), fatal familial insomnia (FFI), Gerstmann-Sträussler-Scheinker syndrome (GSS), and kuru. The prion protein (PrP) is primarily expressed in the central nervous system (CNS), especially in neurons, but it is also found in other tissues. While the physiological function of PrP^C remains partially understood, it is thought to be involved in cellular processes like cell signaling, protection against oxidative stress, and synaptic function. Its pathological form, PrP^Sc, is formed by a misfolded conformation of PrP^C that becomes self-propagating, causing other normal PrP^C molecules to misfold. This cascade leads to the accumulation of toxic aggregates and extensive neuronal damage, a hallmark of prion diseases.
