Targeting strategy
Gene targeting strategy for B-Psen1*P117L mice. The 120 and 146 amino acids Glu and Met of mouse Psen1 was mutated as Lys and Leu in B-Psen1*E120K*M146L mice.
Psen1 mRNA expression in wild-type C57BL/6J mice and homozygous B-Psen1*E120K*M146L mice by RT-PCR. Brain RNA were isolated from wild-type C57BL/6J mice (+/+) and homozygous B-Psen1*E120K*M146L mice (Mut/Mut), then cDNA libraries were synthesized by reverse transcription, followed by PCR with mouse Psen1 primers. Mouse Psen1 mRNA was detectable in wild-type C57BL/6J and homozygous mice. And the point mutations were confirmed via Sanger Sequencing.
Western blot analysis of PSEN1 protein expression in homozygous B-Psen1*E120K*M146L mice. Cortex and hippocampus lysates were collected from wild-type C57BL/6J mice (+/+) and homozygous B-Psen1*E120K*M146L mice (Mut/Mut), and then analyzed by western blot with anti-PSEN1 antibody (CST, #5643). 40 μg total proteins were loaded for western blotting analysis. PSEN1 was detected in cortex and hippocampus both in wild-type and homozygous B-Psen1*E120K*M146L mice.
