Fish Functional Genomics IIM-CSIC platform (GFP-IIM-CSIC) at FishBioTech Lab aims to facilitate research in animal models of aquatic vertebrates offering advice in several cutting-edge technologies of molecular biology, genetics and histology, using zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a model species. The service offers the processing and analysis of the samples as well as their facilities and equipment, so that customers can process and analyze their samples themselves (self-service) always in strict compliance with the existing platform regulations.
The GFP-IIM-CSIC platform (FishBioTech Lab) offers technical support to users in several cutting-edge technologies of molecular biology, genetics and histology using zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a model species. The tasks performed by the service are the following: Micro-injection of DNA, morpholino or mRNA in zebrafish embryos. Generation of stable zebrafish mutant and transgenic lines. CRISPR/Cas9; Tol2Kit and BAC-transgenesis Technologies. Maintenance of transgenic and mutant zebrafish lines . Delivery of embryos, larvae, juveniles and adults (WT, transgenic and mutant fish). “Whole mount” in situ hybridization and inmunohistochemistry tecniques. Genotyping: extraction and quantification of DNA from embryos or fish fin. Isolation, purification and quantification of nucleic acids “Qubit quantification”. Synthesis of cDNA, “Capped” -mRNA and RNA probes. Cloning of genes of interest in plasmid vectors. Gateway recombination cloning. RT-PCR (Thermocycler (PCR)) (self-service option). Real-Time qPCR (SYBRGREEN) and data analysis (self-service option).
