Prions in Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease

Digital illustration showing prions and a brain affected by Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD), the human form of mad cow disease (bovine spongiform encephalopathy). CJD is caused by a prion which promotes refolding of native proteins into the diseased state. The illustration shows both normal and misfolded proteins.
