No Change
     
Phenotypic Profile
Category Entity Quantity Experimental Paradigm Age at Testing
Neuroanatomy / Ultrastructure / Cytoarchitecture Synapse density: inhibitory1
Increased
Description: Mutants show no change in gephyrin expression in the cerebellum compared with controls, a marker of inhibitory synapses.
Exp Paradigm: NA

Western blot 2 months
Neurophysiology Miniature post synaptic current frequency: excitatory1
Increased
Description: Mutants show increase in frequency of miniature spontaneous excitatory postsynatptic currents in the cerebellum compared with controls in the cerebellar purkinje cells.
Exp Paradigm: NA

Whole-cell patch clamp 2 months
Molecular profile Protein degradation: proteasome1
Increased
Description: Mutants show increased mutant protein levels in the brain following treatment with proteasomal inhibitor, compared with control, indicating preferential proteasomal degradation of the mutant protein.
Exp Paradigm: Mice were injected with proteasome inhibitor mg132 between p4 and p20.

Western blot P20
Molecular profile Protein localization: endoplasmic reticulum1
Increased
Description: Mutants show that r451c mutant protein is partially retained in the endoplasmic reticulum compared to controls, as indicated by immature n-linked glycosylation detectable through endoglycosidase h sensitivity.
Exp Paradigm: Endoglycosidase h enzymatic assay

Western blot E18
Molecular profile Gene expression1
Increased
Description: Mutants show brain region specific increase in activation of the upr pathway during development compared with controls, as measured by the levels of the chaperone bip in the cerebellum but not the encephalon. mutants show increase in bip levels in the cerebellum compared to controls but not in the hippocampus or cerebral cortex, during adulthood. mutants show increase in tunicamycin induced upr activation in the cerebellum but not in the hippocampus compared with controls.
Exp Paradigm: NA

Quantitative pcr (qrt-pcr) E18, 2months
Molecular profile Protein expression: in situ protein expression1
Abnormal
Description: Mutants show increased and differently distributed expression of kdel containing er proteins, chaperones bip, grp94, and pdi, compared with controls, in cerebellar purkinje cells and misexpression of kdel proteins in the granule layer in the mutants.
Exp Paradigm: NA

Western blot 2 months
Molecular profile Targeted expression1
Decreased
Description: Mutants show decrease in nlgn3 expression and decrease in the progressive increase in expression in the whole brain and in the cerebellum, cortex and hippocampus, compared with controls.
Exp Paradigm: NA

Western blot E12, 14, 16, 18, p5, 3 weeks, 2 months
Molecular profile Protein expression level evidence1
Increased
Description: Mutants show increased bip protein level in the cerebellum but not in the hippocampus or cortex compared with controls. mutants show increased level of nlgn1 protein compared with controls, usually located in excitatory synapses.
Exp Paradigm: NA

Western blot 2 months
Molecular profile Protein phosphorylation1
Increased
Description: Mutants show increase in phosphorylated eif2alpha levels in the cerebellum but not in the hippocampus or cortex compared with controls,
Exp Paradigm: NA

Western blot 2 months
Molecular profile Protein expression level evidence1 No change Western blot 2 months
Neuroanatomy / Ultrastructure / Cytoarchitecture Synapse density: excitatory1 No change Western blot 2 months
Neurophysiology Miniature post synaptic current amplitude: excitatory1 No change Whole-cell patch clamp 2 months
