A Fluorescence-Based Genetic Screen to Study Retinal Degeneration in Drosophila.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2015

Huang Yu, Xie Jun, Wang Tao

Abstract excerpt

The Drosophila visual system has been proved to be a powerful genetic model to study eye disease such as retinal degeneration. Here, we describe a genetic method termed "Rh1::GFP ey-flp/hid" that is based on the fluorescence of GFP-tagged major rhodopsin Rh1 in the eyes of living flies and can be used to monitor the integrity of photoreceptor cells. Through combination of this method and ERG recording, we...
