Protein Domain : Putative testis-specific prion protein IPR029172

Type  Family
Description  Prion protein (PrP) is intimately linked with transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs). The human PrP gene (PRNP) locus contains three genes: PRNP, DOPPEL and PRND. A novel gene, designated PRNT, has been identified 3kb 3' to PRND and is transcribed to generate at least three alternatively spliced mRNAs. PRNT constitutes a family of putative prion-related proteins expressed in the testis [ , ]. This group of eukaryotic proteins are typically between 52 and 94 amino acids in length.
