CELL SELECTION AND REPORTER SYSTEM

摘要

A fusion protein has three domains, being an extracellular cell surface antigen or a fluorescent protein for sorting uses, an enzyme that enables staining of cells in tissues or tissue sections and an enzyme, such as antibiotic resistance, which protects cells from the effects of a toxic factor in culture medium. The fusion is used for purification and sorting of cells expressing the fusion under control of a cell or tissue-specific promoter and subsequent tracking and analyses of cells post transplantation.
