hide Detailed Description
Statement
Reference
Expression of two copies of Hsap\SNCA[A53T.Scer\UAS.cKa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[Ddc.PL] results in a significant decrease in longevity (flies expressing one copy of Hsap\SNCA[A53T.Scer\UAS.cKa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[Ddc.PL] have normal longevity). The number of ple-positive neurons in the PPM1/2 cluster is reduced compared to wild type in adults expressing Hsap\SNCA[A53T.Scer\UAS.cKa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[Ddc.PL]. Adults expressing Hsap\SNCA[A53T.Scer\UAS.cKa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[Ddc.PL] show an age-related deficit in climbing ability.
The number of dopaminergic neurons in the dorsolateral (DL) and dorsomedial (DM) clusters in the brain of flies expressing Hsap\SNCA[A53T.Scer\UAS.cKa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[elav.PU] is normal in 2 day old adults, but is reduced compared to age-matched controls in 29 day old adults. 25-30 day old flies expressing Hsap\SNCA[A53T.Scer\UAS.cKa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[elav.PU] have reduced climbing ability compared to age-matched controls.

Reference
Co-expression of Hsap\TRAP1[Scer\UAS.cBa] suppresses the reduction in the number of ple-positive neurons in the PPM1/2 cluster which is seen in adults expressing Hsap\SNCA[A53T.Scer\UAS.cKa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[Ddc.PL]. Co-expression of Hsap\TRAP1[Scer\UAS.cBa] significantly rescue the age-related deficit in climbing ability seen in adults expressing Hsap\SNCA[A53T.Scer\UAS.cKa] under the control of Scer\GAL4[Ddc.PL].
