Reporter genes
Reporter genes are used as a toolbox in molecular biology to do gene expression, promoter or transformation/transfection assays. A reporter gene, to be introduced into an organism, is placed with the gene of interest in the same DNA construct. A good reporter confers easily identifiable characteristics as selectable markers.
