Summary:We found that the part BBa_K2005050 is mCherry submitted by iGEM16_Vanderbilt. However, this mCherry is not designed for C.elegans. Thus, we got the sequence and improved it with C.elegans codon adaptor[1]. Compared with original mCherry, new synthesis mCherry sequence is modified in: a.adding three introns b.some codons modified The mCherry part we used now is optimized for C.elegans and perform excellently observed under confocal microscope.

Test for GFP: localize the neuron-AWA
We successfully ligated the Pord-10::CoCHR::GEM-GECO::mCherry and injected the plasmids into C.elegans through microinjection. This picture was one of our stable inheritance strains. We used 543nm to excite AWA and observe at 610nm wavelength through confocal. We successfully observed two pairs of cherry red slender neurons on the anterior region of C.elegans. Comparing to the normal localisation of AWA, we indicated that the fluoresecence of mcherry appeared in AWA. Thus we successfully used mcherry to localise the position of target neuron. And mcherry is characterized by our experiment.
