[Zbrafish] Luciferase Expression Vector

[Kristine Griffett]

Hello All,

We would like to use a luciferase expression vector to tag cells in  
zebrafish embryos and were wondering if anyone has tried to use  
vectors commercially available from Promega (pRL-CMV) or New England  
BioLabs (pCMV-gLUC)?  Can these vectors be used "as-is" or does the  
luciferase coding region need to be inserted into a Xenopus or  
Zebrafish specific vector for expression of the luciferase in the  
embryo?
