An improved BAC transgenic fluorescent reporter line for sensitive and specific identification of striatonigral medium spiny neurons

The development of BAC transgenic mice expressing promoter-specific fluorescent reporter proteins has been a great asset for neuroscience by enabling detection of neuronal subsets in live tissue. For the study of basal ganglia physiology, reporters driven by type 1 and 2 dopamine receptors have bee...
