Proper Citation: BrainTrap: Fly Brain Protein Trap Database (RRID:SCR_003398)
Description: This database contains information on protein expression in the Drosophila melanogaster brain. It consists of a collection of 3D confocal datasets taken from EYFP expressing protein trap Drosophila lines from the Cambridge Protein Trap project. Currently there are 884 brain scans from 535 protein trap lines in the database. Drosophila protein trap strains were generated by the St Johnston Lab and the Russell Lab at the University of Cambridge, UK. The piggyBac insertion method was used to insert constructs containing splice acceptor and donor sites, StrepII and FLAG affinity purification tags, and an EYFP exon (Venus). Brain images were acquired by Seymour Knowles-Barley, in the Armstrong Lab at the University of Edinburgh. Whole brain mounts were imaged by confocal microscopy, with a background immunohistochemical label added to aid the identification of brain structures. Additional immunohistochemical labeling of the EYFP protein using an anti-GFP antibody was also used in most cases. The trapped protein signal (EYFP / anti-GFP), background signal (NC82 label), and the merged signal can be viewed on the website by using the corresponding channel buttons. In all images the trapped protein / EYFP signal appears green and the background / NC82 channel appears magenta. Original .lsm image files are also available for download.

Description: Interactive portal for finding and submitting biomedical resources. Resources within SciCrunch have assigned RRIDs which are used to cite resources in scientific manuscripts. SciCrunch Registry, formerly NIF Registry, provides resources catalog. Allows to add new resources. Allows edit existing resources after registration. Curators are tasked with identifying and registering resources, examining data, writing configuration files to index and display data and keeping contents current.
