General Information

Term

genetically encoded sensor

ID (Ontology)

FBcv:0005044 (FlyBase CV)

Definition

Sequence that forms all or part of the gene product encoded by a transgenic locus or modified endogenous locus and that is used to provide a readout of a biologically relevant property that is not part of or directly encoded by the genome, for example pH, redox state, membrane potential, a change in concentration of a particular molecule. For experimental tools that are used to detect a gene product directly encoded by the genome, see instead 'gene product detection tag'.[ PubMed:20664080 ]
