Prion protein codon 129 polymorphism in mild cognitive impairment and dementia: the Rotterdam Study
Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease is a rare, fatal, neurodegenerative disease caused by the accumulation of abnormally folded prion proteins. The common polymorphism at codon 129 (methionine/valine) in the prion protein (PRNP) gene is the most important determinant of genetic susceptibility. Homozygotes of...
