A stop codon is introduced after residue 421 in Hsap\MAPT cDNA that is cloned downstream of UASt regulatory sequences.
increased cell death, with Scer\GAL4elav-C155
Neuronal expression of Hsap\MAPT1-421.Scer\UAS (under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155) results in a significant increase in TUNEL-positive cells (compared to controls and compared to Hsap\MAPTScer\UAS.cWa expression).
