Description

UASt drives expression of the mature Mmus\Prnp 3F4 protein (the 3F4 epitope is created via two amino acid substitutions, L108M and V111M, and is already present in wild-type human and hamster PrP) carrying a single-codon mutation (D177N) associated with fatal familial insomnia (FFI) prion disease in humans, flanked by the coding sequence of its autologous leader peptide and GPI signal sequence.

Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

The expression of Mmus\PrnpFFI.3F4.UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 leads to adults showing a progressive decrease in climbing ability.

The progressive decrease in climbing ability induced by the expression of Mmus\PrnpWT.3F4.UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155 is enhanced by inoculation with brain extracts from individuals expressing Mmus\PrnpFFI.3F4.UAS under the control of Scer\GAL4elav-C155.
