Indeed, all lab mise are poor.

it looks to me like your just shining a green torch/flashlight on him.

[Gennadiy Berezutskiy]

Not exactly, but you are correct about torch/flashlight. Under a special light this mouse glows bright green. This is the study of how stem cells binds to a different cells in a body. Marc Zimmer's research group has linked a gene, that makes jellyfish glow green under blue fluorescent light, to a protein found in mice.

@TemhairGoddess They were created not to survive the wild life, but to help humans study cancer developing within their bodies.

I am in the 7th grade and we learned about this. I believethey got the gene from a firefly that makes it glow and inserted it into the mouse embryo.

How the hell do you sleep when your eye lids glow green?

It would be better to place a control mouse together.

GFP!

While its true that these genes have been transplanted into goldfish and smaller insects, there is clearly a light being moved onto this mouse every time the mouse moves.... Someday we will get to this point though.
