Description

UASt regulates expression of the G1 Hsap\APOL1 allele, which differs from the wild type APOL1-G0 only at S342 and I384, obtained from a cDNA library generated from podocytes cultured from a child with HIV-associated nephropathy. The coding sequence is tagged at the C-terminal end with Tag:FLAG.

Comments concerning this variant

APOL1 double variant associated with increased risk of progressive kidney disease in sub-Saharan African ancestry populations.

Phenotype Manifest In
Detailed Description
Statement
Reference

Expressing Hsap\APOL1G1.UAS.cFa under the control of Scer\GAL4Mef2.PR leads to some individuals showing a 'held-out wing' phenotype and to disorganized and reduced indirect flight muscle fibers; Scer\GAL4Bx-MS1096-driven expression induces smaller and misshapen wings, plus vein abnormalities; Scer\GAL4vg.PU-driven expression induces wing vein defects.

Although adult pericardial nephrocytes expressing Hsap\APOL1G1.UAS.cFa under the control of Scer\GAL4Ugt36A1.PK start by exhibiting higher uptake function at day 1, there is a progressive decrease in function at days 8 and 15, as compared to controls; despite being of similar sizes to controls at day 1, these nephrocytes progressively increase in size (at days 8 and 15), as compared to controls.
