VisuVivo
- Summary
- A proliferation marker to visualise cell cycle progression in vitro and in vivo with high spatial resolution of the M-phase
- Technology Benefits
- Visualising proliferating cells in vitro & in vivo
Identification, isolation and characterisation of proliferating cells
Discrimination between cell division and acytokinetic mitosis / endoreplication
Applicable in cell systems containing a mixture of proliferating, differentiated and post-mitotic cells
- Technology Application
- VisuVivo can aid to gain knowledge about mechanisms of cell proliferation, which could be useful for stem cell biology as well as regenerative medicine and others.
- Detailed Technology Description
- The invention provides a nucleic acid expression construct encoding a fusion protein comprising a fluorescence reporter protein (like EGFP) and a protein with a wild-type destruction signal (like Anillin). Localised to subcellular structures during cell cycle progression, it presents a fluorescence marker for imaging cell cycle progression in vitro and in vivo.
