Prior to its identification in the bovine and rat brain in 1991, neurogranin was known as a putative protein kinase C-phosphorylated protein named p17.
The disease, known as V.C.J.D., is thought to stem from eating infected beef and attacks the human brain in much the same way as mad cow attacks the bovine brain.
