The Science of GloFish®
Where do GloFish® fluorescent zebrafish come from?
GloFish® fluorescent zebrafish were originally bred to help detect
environmental pollutants. By adding a natural fluorescence gene to the
fish, scientists hoped to one day quickly and easily determine when a
waterway is contaminated. The first step in developing a
pollution-detecting fish was to create fish that would be fluorescent
all the time. Scientists soon realized the public's interest in sharing
the benefits of this research, a process which lead to GloFish®
fluorescent fish.
How common is the use of fluorescent zebrafish in science?
For over a decade, fluorescent zebrafish have been relied upon by
scientists worldwide to better understand important questions in
genetics, molecular biology, and vertebrate development. Fluorescent
zebrafish have been particularly helpful in understanding cellular
disease and development, as well as cancer and gene therapy.
Where does the fluorescent color come from?
The fluorescent color in our fish is produced by a fluorescent protein
gene, which creates the beautiful fluorescence that can be seen when
looking at the fish. The fluorescent protein genes occur naturally, and
are derived from marine organisms.
Do you have to add a fluorescence gene to every fish before it
hatches?
No. Today's GloFish® fluorescent fish are bred from the offspring of
fluorescent zebrafish that were originally developed several years ago.
Each new GloFish® fluorescent fish inherits its unique color directly
from its parents, maintains the color throughout its life, and passes
the color along to its offspring.
