Application

Application Comment Organism
molecular biology when aequorin is microinjected into cleavage-stage zebrafish embryos, it is largely used up by about 24 hours. Thus, it is not possible to image Ca2+ signals from later stages of zebrafish development using this approach. Transient expression of apoaequorin (i.e., the protein component of aequorin) using aeq-mRNA in zebrafish embryos and then reconstitution of intact aequorin in vivo by loading the coelenterazine cofactor into the embryos separately provides a valuable tool for monitoring Ca2+ signaling during the 24–48 h post fertilization period of zebrafish development. Thus, it effectively extends the aequorin-based Ca2+-imaging window by an additional 24 hours Aequorea forskalea
