摘要

PCT No. PCT/US96/05028 Sec. 371 Date May 26, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date May 26, 1998 PCT Filed Apr. 11, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO96/32128 PCT Pub. Date Oct. 17, 1996The invention involves isolated anti prion protein binding proteins which have molecular weights of from about 55 kD to about 72 kD as determined by SDS-PAGE. Also described is a peptide derived from an isolated anti protein binding protein. Diagnostic uses for each of these molecules are discussed.
