| Gene Affected |
YFP* (Venus): yellow fluorescent protein variant, Slc32a1: solute carrier family 32 member 1 |
| Origin |
This transgenic rat was established at National Institute for Physiological Sciences in 2004, thereafter introduced to Gunma University in 2006. (Jun 22, 2009) |
| Strain characteristics |
This transgenic rat aims to establish Venus-labeled GABAergic neuron. There are 2 strains (A line: NBRP No.0554 and B line: NBRP No.0555) and expression and distribution of YFP* (Venus) are different from between the strains. In the frontal cortex, YFP* was expressed in 98% of GABAergic A line and 93% of that of B line. (Uematsu, 2007) (Jun 22, 2009) |
| Breeding Conditions |
Identify the transgenic rats by genotyping from progeny of crossing of hemizygous Tg rat and wild-type Wistar rat. (Jun 22, 2009) |
| Genotyping |
