As opposed to you maybe not every creature wants an existence as a caricature of its species....

It's the bigger picture of the expression of the proteins involved and whatnot.

I wish they'd be less reluctant to test this stuff on humans.

We've got some transgenic mice that express GFP along with the RGS9 protein, so the neurons we're studying that have RGS9 can be easily identified in culture. Good stuff.

The thing I like most about it is that it doesn't require any antibody stains to see it. You just collect and go. :icon14:
