Excuse me could you cite this paper, the only work of this kind that I
have seen had transgenic mice infected with BSE, but those with were
positive solely for Human PrP did not develop, and those which where human
+ve/mouse +ve only developed mouse PrPsc....indicating a cattle to human
species barrier in the experiment but no cattle to mouse barrier.
