Unlocking pan-neuronal expression in mosquitoes

Cell Rep Methods. 2021 Jul 26;1(3):100051. doi: 10.1016/j.crmeth.2021.100051.

Abstract

The ability to express a gene in all neurons is a crucial tool for studying the nervous system. Zhao et al., 2021 unlock genetic access to all neurons in mosquitoes by generating the first pan-neuronal transgenes in this non-model insect.
