osx:mCherry

Strain information
Strain ID TG1134
Strain Name osx:mCherry
Strain Type Transgenics
Characteristics The osx:mCherry transgenic embryos express mCherry in pre-mature and mature osteoblasts. (see Renn and Winkler, Dev Dyn 2009). mCherry is expressed in regions of early bone formation and remains highly expressed in mature osteoblasts that mineralize bone matrix.

TG1134_osx Cherry_15dpf
mCherry fluorescence expression in premature and mature osteoblasts in a medaka larvae at 15 dpf. Note strong fluorescence in cleithrum, arches of vertebral bodies and fin rays of caudal fins. For details see Renn and Winkler, Dev Dyn 2009.

TG1134_osx mCherry transgene map
A 4.1-kb fragment (including a putative Runx2 binding site) upstream of the osterix (osx) translational start site from genomic DNA was cloned in front of mCherry into a vector with flanking I-SceI meganuclease restriction sites (for details see Renn and Winkler, Dev Dyn 2009).
