Heterologous reporter expression in the planarian <i>Schmidtea mediterranea</i> through somatic mRNA transfection

2021-04-20

Abstract excerpt

Planarians have long been studied for their regenerative abilities. Moving forward, tools for ectopic expression of non-native proteins will be of substantial value. Using a luminescent reporter to overcome the strong autofluorescence background of planarian tissues, we demonstrate heterologous protein expression in planarian cells and live animals. Our approach is based on the introduction of mRNA through several...
