Three-dimensional retinal culture systems help to understand eye development and the pathology of disorders. There is a need for reporter stem cell lines to allow in vitro studies on retinal progenitors and photoreceptors and their developmental dynamics or properties and to test therapeutic approaches. The isolation of pure progenitor populations or photoreceptor precursors may serve for drug, gene, and cell therapy development. Here, we generated a dual-reporter mouse embryonic stem cell line Crx-GFP;Rax-mCherry…
