In order to enable reliable imaging of afferent calcium transients deep within tissue, scientists have overcome the constraints of genetically encoded calcium markers. By developing an axon-targeted GECI called axon-GCaMP6, which enriches solely in local or distal axons with improved brightness and photostability, they were able to extend calcium imaging beyond the soma and dendrites. Axon-GCaMP6 exhibits improved SNR and is diffusible and photostable. Axon motion correction in vivo is considerably facilitated by the abundance of axon-GCaMP6 in axons, which provides improved frame-to-frame cross-correlation without extensive averaging. Creative Biolabs is a world-leading provider in membrane protein drug discovery. We offer Axon-GCaMP plasmids, viruses, and cell lines to contribute to the success of your projects.
