Expression of PrPmyc in Tg941 was approximately 0.33 fold in brain and 2-fold in spleen of PrPC expression in Prnp+/o mice (data not shown). | |||||||||||||||

|
As Tg941 mice express about one-third of the PrPmyc found in brains of Tg940 mice, this indicates that the action of PrPmyc, like that of PrPC, is dose-dependent.
| |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
To obtain transgenic strains that only expressed PrPmyc yet no endogenous PrP, both transgenic founders Tg940 and Tg941 were crossed twice to Prnpo/o mice. | |||||||||||||||
| |||||||||||||||
|
Mice expressing less PrPmyc in brain (Tg941) developed signs of CNS dysfunction and terminal scrapie disease more slowly, at 316±20 (n? | |||||||||||||||

|
The two highest-expressing lines, termed Tg(PrPmyc)940Zbz and Tg(PrPmyc)941Zbz (henceforth Tg940 and Tg941 for brevity) were chosen for further propagation. | |||||||||||||||
