In Vivo labeling of zebrafish motor neurons using an mnx1 enhancer and Gal4/UAS
29 Apr 2011
Abstract excerpt
The zebrafish spinal cord primary motor neurons are commonly used as an experimental model to study the molecular mechanisms that regulate axonal pathfinding and neuromuscular junction formation, and for the modeling of human neurodegenerative disorders. This study characterized a 125-bp mnx1 enhancer to direct gene expression in spinal cord motor neurons. A promoter containing three copies of the 125-bp mnx1...
