Description: Xenopus neural (NBT/tubb2b) driving expression of blue light photoinducible channel rhodopsin (ChIEF). ChIEF is a chimera of channel rodopsin 1 & 2, with a point mutation of Ile (position 170) to Val (see Lin et al 2009, Biophys J. for more details). Rat (Rno) elastase (elas) promoter driving expression of GFP is the integration marker. Custom transgenic generated by the NXR.
