The Tg(ccnb1:EGFP) transgenic zebrafish line labels proliferating cells during retinal development and regeneration.

Abstract

The spatial and temporal patterning of EGFP expression in the Tg(ccnb1:EGFP)(nt18) line directly reflects the known locations of proliferating cells in the zebrafish retina, making it a useful marker to study the transient nature of neuronal progenitor cells during the development and regeneration of the zebrafish retina.
