  • Methods and compositions for evaluating cell function in sensory neurons
    Publication number: 20060211021
    Abstract: Methods and compositions are provided for determining whether target, e.g., an endogenous or novel (non-endogenous), nucleic acid sequence of a neuronal cell is involved in sensory function. In practicing the subject methods, a neuronal cell selective vector including a modulating domain for a neuronal cell nucleic acid sequence, optionally having a domain encoding a directly detectable product, is administered to an animal. Sensory function in harvested neuronal cells is then evaluated to determine whether the target nucleic acid sequence is involved in sensory function. Also provided are compositions, kits, and systems for practicing the subject methods.
