Figure 2

Comparison of PrPres molecular mass, SAF84/P4 ratio and glycoform ratio. A: apparent molecular mass (black symbols, right y axis, linear scale) and SAF84/P4 relative ratio (red symbols, left y axis, log scale) of all scrapie samples analysed in comparison to sheep BSE. Samples are ordered from the lowest to the highest SAF84/P4 ratio. Sheep BSE displays the highest SAF84/P4 ratios and the lowest apparent molecular mass. Note that samples with the lowest SAF84/P4 ratios also display the highest apparent molecular masses and that these samples include Greek sheep and goat deriving from the same A11 flock (see Table 1). B: Scattergraph of proportions of proteinase K-treated di-glycosylated and mono-glycosylated PrPres in scrapie (black symbols) and sheep BSE (red symbol). Error bars represent standard deviations of three independent determinations.
