  • Tool name: AAV.GFAP.iGluSnFR vector
  • Research fields: Cell biology;Neurobiology
  • Tool sub type: pAAV
  • Bacterial resistance: Ampicillin
  • Description: This plasmid has an intensity-based glutamate-sensing fluorescent reporter (“iGluSnFRâ€�) to be used to visualize the fluorescence change during glutamate release by neurons and astrocytes during in vivo imaging. This glutamate sensor is constructed from E. coli Gltl and cpGFP. This adeno-associated virus under the glial fibrillary acidic protein promoter drives expression in astrocytes.
  • Additional notes: This plasmid has an intensity-based glutamate-sensing fluorescent reporter (“iGluSnFRâ€�) to be used to visualize the fluorescence change during glutamate release by neurons and astrocytes during in vivo imaging.
