We identified efficient membrane-localising tags in each of the 10 animals we tested. A few tags worked in every species!

The project was also an exciting venture into open science – sharing resources openly before publication – and collaborating with >10 labs studying different organisms.

Project started a year ago, when we gathered a set of 11 tags, made them easy to test as mRNA that can be injected in eggs, and sent to 30 labs around the world. We present the results of testing these tags in animals as diverse as sea urchin, beetle, crustacean, worm, sea anemone & jellyfish.

In the latest paper, @cagricevrim.bsky.social, @berylbiologist.bsky.social‬ & Ko succeeded in imaging the entire course of leg regeneration and @mlrusciano.bsky.social‬ & @almazan.bsky.social developed HCR to identify specific cell types after imaging. elifesciences.org/articles/107... 4/6
Long-term live imaging, cell identification and cell tracking in regenerating crustacean legs
Live imaging allows tracking cellular behaviours and cell fates during the entire course of leg regeneration, spanning approximately one week, in a crustacean model.
