Overview[edit | edit source]

Based on the biochemical signatures of the disease-associated prion protein, Bovine spongiform encephalopahty (BSE) may be classified as either classic or atypical. Atypical BSE may further be classified into H- and L-types. Due to the accumulation of amyloid protein in the brain in cattles with L-type BSE, its also known as bovine amyloidotic spongiform encephalopathy (BASE).
