Transgenic Zebrafish. Abstract. The zebrafish has become a popular model system for genetic studies of vertebrate development. Zebrafish are amenable to such studies because the generation time of zebrafish is short, adults are small and easy to maintain, and females typically lay up to several hundred eggs per mating.

Chimeric gene constructs for generation of fluorescent transgenic ornamental fish

Four zebrafish gene promoters, which are skin specific, muscle specific, skeletal muscle specific and ubiquitously expressed respectively, were isolated and ligated to the 5' end of the EGFP gene. When the resulting chimeric gene constructs were introduced into zebrafish, the transgenic zebrafish emit green fluorescence under a blue light or ultraviolet light according to the specificity of the promoters used. Thus, new varieties of ornamental fish of different fluorescence patterns, e.g., skin fluorescence, muscle fluorescence, skeletal muscle-specific and / or ubiquitous fluorescence, are developed.

Transgenic zebrafish expressing gene Cas9 and construction method and application of transgenic zebrafish

The invention relates to a transgenic zebrafish expressing a gene Cas9 and a construction method and the application of the transgenic zebrafish. According to the transgenic zebrafish expressing the gene Cas9, the gene Cas9 is inserted into a gene Mitfa of the zebrafish. The transgenic zebrafish capable of expressing the gene Cas9 is constructed in a targeting way at the fixed point of the pigmentgene Mitfa through the CRISPR / Cas9 transgenic technology, and pigment fading is taken as a mark for screening the homozygous knockout line. Using the transgenic zebrafish to edit a gene Tyr and a gene ZFERV proves that the transgenic zebrafish is more effective in the gene knockout, and a homozygous knockout individual is obtained on the F0 generation. Compared with the application of the traditional CRISPR / Cas9 technology to the zebrafish, the gene editing efficiency of the Cas9 transgenic zebrafish is higher; and a simple effective tool is provided for the large-scale gene screening and theestablishment of a disease model.

Transgenic animals for monitoring water quality

InactiveUS20060143718A1Reduce cost per sampleIncreases time required data acquisitionPollution detectorsChemiluminescene/bioluminescenceLuciferase GeneWater quality
The present invention provides methods and systems that uses transgenic zebrafish with an easily assessable reporter gene under the control of pollutant-inducible DNA response elements. Transgenic zebrafish, carrying pollution-inducible response elements, are placed in the water to be tested, and the contaminants become bioconcentrated (generally 1,000- to 40,000-fold, relative to the water) in the tissues of the fish thereby activating specific response elements, which up-regulate the LUC reporter gene. Fish are then removed from the test water and placed immediately in a luminometer cuvette and incubated with luciferin. Luciferin is rapidly taken up into the tissues of the fish, oxidized by luciferase, and light is produced. The luminescence is proportional to the environmental concentration of the pollutant (to which the fish had been exposed), which drives the expression of the LUC gene by means of the various DNA motifs. The luminescence is quantitated in the luminometer. In each response element-containing construct, a specific class of polluting chemicals, allowing for differential identification of pollutants in a complex mixture activates the expression of the LUC gene. This assay does not require killing the fish and allows for repeated analysis of the same site with the same fish. The sensitivity of the system can be manipulated by varying the sequence of the response element.
