Immunoblots in protein extracts from brain hemisphere at the age of 1 year. Quantitative comparison of proteins with soluble (RIPA fraction) or more insoluble (SDS fraction) distribution, in brain hemispheres from WT (F1-hybrids between FVB/N and 129/SvEv), both SM lines and DM mice. Altered abundance of p62 could not be detected in any condition; beta-actin was used as a loading control. (A) RIPA fraction shows the increased dosage of alpha-synuclein owing to the overexpression of human A53T-SNCA in the DM and the PrPmtA mice, with the appearance of phospho-Serine129-alpha-synuclein immunoreactivity (pSer129) in these two lines. (B) SDS fraction confirms the increased abundance of alpha-synuclein owing to the presence of human A53T-SNCA in these two lines and documents the appearance of additional pSer129 immunoreactive bands of higher molecular for both lines. The antibody against the alpha-synuclein C-term epitope detected a putative light increase of immunoreactivity in DM tissue.
