Expression patterns of zebrafish nocturnin genes and the transcriptional activity of the frog nocturnin promoter in zebrafish rod photoreceptors.

Year: 2017

Type: article

Abstract: Purpose: promoter has transcriptional activity in zebrafish. Methods: promoter. Results: promoter can be specifically activated in zebrafish rod photoreceptors. Conclusions: promoter makes it a useful tool to drive moderate and rod-specific transgenic expression in zebrafish. The results of this study lay the groundwork to study nocturnin-based circadian biology of the zebrafish retina.
