Immunoblot analysis of primary sheep microglia following exposure to PrPSc (microgliaSc) and unexposed microglia (microgliaC). Microglia were lysed, treated with proteinase K (PK) (+) or not treated with proteinase K (−), precipitated with phosphotungstic acid, and immunoblotted using the monoclonal anti-PrP antibody F99.97.6.1. (A) Comparison of prion immunoreactivity from sheep brain, microgliaSc, and microgliaC. (B) Comparison of proteinase K-resistant glycoform patterns between Rov9Sc and microgliaSc. The positions of molecular mass standards (in kilodaltons) are indicated to the left of the immunoblots.
