Thy-1.2 promoter-regulated ChR2 transgenic rat construct pattern
Protein DomainThe Thy-1.2 promoter-regulated ChR2 transgenic rat construct pattern is a transgenic rat system in which channelrhodopsin-2 is expressed specifically in retinal ganglion cells under control of the Thy-1.2 promoter. It enables light-driven activation of these cells and was associated with behavior-related visual responses after native photoreceptor degeneration.
