The large sample sizes, availability of healthy mutation carriers, the noncarriers of similar environmental and cultural background, and rapid access to symptomatic patients, are all unprecedented features that should yield definitive data on the early stages of this devastating disease. , Ste. 315 San Francisco, Ca 941430962 Timing: Fiscal Year 2005; Project Start 15-SEP-2003; Project End 31-AUG-2008 Summary: (provided by applicant): Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD)is a rapidly progressive, universally fatal, and transmissible neurodegenerative disease that imposes a terrible burden on patients and their families.
The normal cellular isoform (PrPC) is misfolded to the beta-sheet rich pathogenic isoform (PrPSc). Once formed, PrPSc appears to act as a conformational template to convert additional PrPC to PrPSc. Considerable evidence supports sequence homology within the central region of PrP as a necessary feature in the association of PrPSc with PrPC as a prelude to conversion and propagation of PrPSc, but the exact segment(s) involved and the sequence determinants for this conversion are unknown. Studies targeted at understanding the site(s) of association of PrPC and PrPSc will no doubt define ways to inhibit their interaction and provide treatment for these currently untreatable diseases.
PrPSc is thought to be the sole constituent of infectious prion particles. Prion propagation proceeds via a highly-specific process of conformational rearrangement in which PrPSc imposes its own structure upon PrPC bound to it. The transmission of bovine spongiform encephalopathy prions to humans, manifesting clinically as variant Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease, and ongoing spread of chronic wasting disease in cervids in North America, have demonstrated the pressing need for effective prion therapeutics.
