Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine light-activated caspase-3 can be used for precise ablation of neurons in vivo Homo sapiens

Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
engineering of a light-activated human caspase-3 (Caspase-LOV) by exploiting its natural spring-loaded activation mechanism through rational insertion of the light-sensitive LOV2 domain that expands upon illumination. Using the tissue-specific expression system (UAS)-GAL4, Caspase-LOV is specifically expressed in three neuronal cell types: retinal, sensory, and motor neuron of Drosophila Homo sapiens
