From: Genetic, histochemical and biochemical studies on goat TSE cases from Cyprus
Discriminatory immunoblot of goats with PrP Sc accumulation in the brain stem. Glycosylation patterns of the 25 caprine isolates from Cyprus, the caprine (ZG01), ovine (486) and bovine (R8/07) BSE isolates and of the ovine scrapie isolate (Stdl. 171) are shown in a comparative tri-plot diagram. On the left axis is demonstrated the proportion of the di-glycosylated, on the right axis of the mono-glycosylated and on the axis below the un-glycosylated form of PrPSc of the overall signal in the western blot. The Cypriot samples as well as the ovine scrapie case can be clearly differentiated from the BSE samples.
