Note
This construct is designed to drive expression of E. coli nitroreductase in the hcrt-expressing neurons of the larval hypothalamus. Bath application of the prodrug metronidazole (e.g. 15 mM from 24-72 hpf) results in cell-specific ablation of hcrt-neurons. -- Elbaz et al. 2012, ZDB-PUB-120927-25
