Thus, the ALS symptoms observed in G93A transgenic mice are not caused by the reduction of Cu,Zn-SOD activity with the mutant enzyme; rather, it is induced by a gain-of-function, an enhancement of the free radical-generating function.

Mice engineered to express a transgene encoding a human Cu/Zn superoxide dismutase (SOD1) with a Gly93 --> Ala (G93A) mutation found in patients who succumb to familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (FALS) develop a rapidly progressive and fatal motor neuron disease (MND) similar to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).

We used in vivo microdialysis to measure the conversion of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid to 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (3,4-DHBA) as a measure of "hydroxyl radical-like" production in transgenic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) mice with the G93A mutation as well as littermate controls.

Transgenic mice with several copies of a mutated human superoxide dismutase 1 (Gly93-Ala substitution) gene, i.e. a mutation responsible for the development of familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), integrated into the mouse genome, develop a slowly progressive paralysis of the hind-limbs accompanied by a corresponding degeneration of spinal cord neuronal tissue.

Therefore, we undertook to look for folding-related defects by comparing the unfolding behavior of five ALS-associated mutants with distinct structural characteristics: A4V at the interface between the N and C termini, C6F in the hydrophobic core, D90A at the protein surface, and G93A and G93C, which decrease backbone flexibility.
