Flies expressing Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 (ubiquitously, under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL) increases susceptibility to DTT. After exposure to 25mM DTT for 144 hours, more than 70% of control flies are alive, whereas less than 50% of Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 flies survive. These flies also show significantly increased resistance to H[[2]]O[[2]] compared to controls. After treatment with 1% H[[2]]O[[2]], more than 70% of Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 flies survive, while less than 60% of control flies remain. Conversely, sensitivity to paraquat is significantly increased in Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 flies. After 36 hours of paraquat exposure, less than 30% of Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 flies are alive, while more than 60% of control flies survive.
After 60 hours of exposure to 20mM 3-MA, the number of Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4-expressing (under the control of Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL) flies alive is significantly reduced compared to control flies. However, 40υM wortmannin treatment does not induce any significant difference in the number of live flies between Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL/Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 and control flies.
Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL/Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 flies treated with 40υM LY294002 do not show any difference from control flies.
Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL/Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 flies show a significantly increased susceptibility to LiCl but not rapamycin. Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL/Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 flies also show an increased susceptibility to the simultaneous treatment of rapamycin and LiCl that is similar to that of LiCl alone.
Expression of Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 driven by Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL induces severe defects in climbing ability and early death. Type 1 glutamatergic larval neuromusclular junctions expressing Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 driven by Scer\GAL4αTub84B.PL have more small-sized satellite boutons than those of controls.
Expression of Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 driven by Scer\GAL4Act5C.PU induces severe defects in climbing ability and early death.
When Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 is expressed via by Scer\GAL4ChAT.7.4, more than 90% of flies fail the climbing test at 20 days of age.
When Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 is expressed via by Scer\GAL4elav-C155, more than 90% of flies fail the climbing test at 55 days of age.
Flies expressing Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 driven by one of the drivers Scer\GAL4Ddc.PL or Scer\GAL4Tab2-201Y or Scer\GAL4Gli.PS or Scer\GAL4C57 do not lead to any significant climbing defects, as compared to controls.

Co-expression of BacA\p35Scer\UAS.cUa with Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4 driven by Scer\GAL4Cha.7.4 does not suppress the Mmus\PrnpP101L.Scer\UAS.T:Hsap\PRNP-3F4-associated climbing defects.
