The microbe that causes mad cow disease in cattle and Creutzfeldt- Jakob disease in humans is a mysterious killer. It's not a bacteria or a virus but a mutant protein that feeds on itself, producing holes in the brain that resemble a Swiss cheese under a microscope and eventually kills the patient.

PULLMAN - The two-headed calves and grossly enlarged animal skulls mounted on the walls of the Washington State University veterinary hospital are known as monsters, but they are not the type that keep scientists here awake at night.
The researchers are much more worried about plague, E. coli, anthrax or other deadly agents that terrorists could use to kill Americans or destroy the nation's food supply.
