S2 cells expressing TrxTScer\UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4Act5C.PHb show increased viability under oxidative stress (induced by hydrogen peroxide) compared to control cells.
Expression of TrxTScer\UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu results in a 15.3% extension of lifespan compared to control flies.
30 day old flies expressing TrxTScer\UAS.cUa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu show a slightly increased average climbing activity compared to control flies of the same age.
Scer\GAL4elav.PLu/TrxTUAS.cUa is a suppressor of abnormal locomotor behavior phenotype of Hsap\GPR37UAS.cYa
Scer\GAL4elav.PLu/TrxTUAS.cUa is a suppressor of abnormal locomotor behavior phenotype of Hsap\ATXN3tr.Q78.UAS.Tag:HA
Scer\GAL4elav.PLu/TrxTUAS.cUa is a suppressor of dopaminergic neuron phenotype of Hsap\GPR37UAS.cYa
Co-expression of TrxTScer\UAS.cUa dramatically improves the average climbing activity of 50 day old flies expressing Hsap\GPR37Scer\UAS.cYa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu.
Co-expression of TrxTScer\UAS.cUa significantly rescues the reduction in the number of dopaminergic neurons in the dorsomedial clusters of the brain seen in 50 day old flies expressing Hsap\GPR37Scer\UAS.cYa under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu.
The severe reduction in climbing ability seen in 50 day old flies expressing Hsap\MJDtr.Q78.Scer\UAS.T:Ivir\HA1 under the control of Scer\GAL4elav.PLu is partially suppressed by co-expression of TrxTScer\UAS.cUa.
Carried in plasmid "pUAS-TrxT", transfected into S2 cells and used to study the ability of the protein produced to protect cells from oxidative stress.
