ChR2-2A-Halo: Channelrhodopsin-halorhodopsin gene fusions: bi-directional neural control with two different colors of light

[Print-Friendly File]

ChR2-2A-Halo-N1
Plasmid for: ubiquitous (based on pEGFP-N1) expression of ChR2-GFP and Halo-YFP in a ~1:1 ratio.
Contains: pEGFP-N1 backbone, CMV promoter, blue-light activated cation channel ChR2 (channelrhodopsin-2 from C. reinhardtii). GFP, 2A "self-cleaving" peptide, yellow-light driven chloride pump Halo (halorhodopsin from N. pharaonis, aka NpHR), YFP.
