NEW TRANSGENIC ZEBRAFISH, GENE FRAGMENT AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE TRANSGENIC ZEBRAFISH

摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new golden zebrafish having a fluorescent transgene and expressing a fluorescent protein in skeletal muscles of its whole body. PSOLUTION: A new species of the golden zebrafish having the skeletal muscles emitting red fluorescence is provided by using (1) an α-actin gene promotor of the golden zebrafish, (2) a fluorescent gene, (3) an inverted terminal repeat (ITR) of an adeno-associated virus, and (4) a gene fragment containing a base part obtained from a pUC.
