UAS regulatory sequences drive expression of Hsap\TARDBP that has been mutated to carry a D169G amino acid substitution, a variant associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. The coding sequence is tagged at the C-terminal end with six copies of Tag:MYC.
eye, with Scer\GAL4GMR.PU
Expression of Hsap\TARDBPD169G.UAS.Tag:MYC under the control of Scer\GAL4GMR.PU leads to age-dependent eye degeneration. Its expression under the control of Scer\GAL4Toll-6-D42 leads to progressive climbing defects.
