The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored glycoprotein that tends to aggregate into rod-like structures.
The encoded protein contains a highly unstable region of five tandem octapeptide repeats.
This gene is found on chromosome 20, approximately 20kbp upstream of a gene which encodes a biochemically and structurally similar protein to the one encoded by this gene.
Mutations in the repeat region as well as elsewhere in this gene have been associated with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, fatal familial insomnia, Gerstmann- Straussler disease, Huntington disease-like 1, and kuru.
An overlapping open reading frame has been found for thisgene that encodes a smaller, structurally unrelated protein, AltPrp.
Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
