Application

Optogenetics-mediated neuronal biochemical signal modulation, Biochemical Modulation, rAAV viral vectors are used to express light-sensitive biochemical regulatory proteins in neurons, such as light-sensitive G protein-coupled receptors (Opto-XR), light-sensitive adenylate cyclases (such as bPAC), photosensitive phosphatase, etc., which can specifically regulate the levels of second messengers (such as cAMP, IP3) and downstream signal transduction pathways in neurons, and explore the effects of light-controlled biochemical signals on neuronal function, synaptic plasticity and animal behavior.

Notes

1. Short-term storage at 4°C; long-term storage at -80°C

2. It can be stored at -80°C for more than 6 months. Each time it is frozen and thawed, the titer will be reduced by 10%, and repeated freezing and thawing should be avoided; if the virus is stored for more than 6 months, it is recommended to re-measure the virus titer before use

3. According to the experimental needs, the virus can be appropriately diluted and divided into the volume required for each experiment.
