Synopsis of PrP^res analyses in the brain and other tissues.

1In bold italic organs where PrPres had not been detected previously. 2TH: PrPres searched in tissue homogenate. 3NaPTA: PrPres searched following enrichment with sodium phosphotungstate precipitation. 4Amount of PrPres expressed as percentage of PrPres present in the frontal cortex. Glyc. ratio: glycoform ratio expressed as percentage of the sum of the three isoforms and representing diglycosylated:monoglycosylated:unglycosylated forms. Data listed for tissue positive in both TH and NaPTA preparations were obtained from TH. 5PrPres was previously reported in colon with no specification of the segment examined.
