Figure 1.

Median-joining network of PRNP haplotypes. The circle areas are proportional to the frequency of the haplotypes. The branch lengths are proportional to the number of allele differences they represent. The haplotype number is shown next to the circles, and mutation positions are indicated on the branches linking two haplotypes. Each color inside the circle indicates the presence of the haplotype in a specific continental region.
