In addition, transgenic lines of model fish harboring a tissue-specific reporter have become a powerful tool for the study of biological sciences, since it is possible to visualize the dynamic expression of a specific gene in the transparent embryos. generated a transgenic zebrafish line huORFZ, which harbors the upstream open reading frame (uORF) from human CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein homologous protein gene (chop), fused with the GFP reporter and driven by a cytomegalovirus promoter [54] . For example, the Tsai's lab established a transgenic line which could be induced to knock down the expression level of cardiac troponin C at any developmental stage, including embryos, larva or adult fish. ./cache/cord-001921-73esrper.txt ./txt/cord-001921-73esrper.txt
