COMMENT     *source: strain=Holstein-Friesian; tissue=peripheral lymphocytes;
            *source: developmental stage=adult,germline; PrP protein aggregates
            are found in BSE which is a member of the scrapie-like diseases. A
            second bovine PrP allele shows deletion of nucleotides 211 to 234.
            
            Nucleotide 576 exhibits C to T transition, creating a HindII
            polymorphism.
