Souffle/Spastizin Controls Secretory Vesicle Maturation during Zebrafish Oogenesis
During oogenesis, the egg prepares for fertilization and early embryogenesis. As a consequence, vesicle transport is very active during vitellogenesis, and oocytes are an outstanding system to study regulators of membrane trafficking. Here, we combine zebrafish genetics and the oocyte model to identify the molecular lesion underlying the zebrafish souffle (suf) mutation. We demonstrate that suf...
متن کاملIsolation and expression analysis of foxj1 and foxj1.2 in zebrafish embryos.
In this report, we present the isolation and identification of a zebrafish homolog of the winged helix\forkhead transcription factor Foxj1. Foxj1 was identified in other species but not in zebrafish. Foxj1 was shown in mice to be required in ciliogenesis and left-right asymmetry establishment. Here we present a spatio-temporal expression pattern of zebrafish foxj1, showing that this gene is exp...
متن کامل09-P061 The role of the extracellular matrix in Kupffer’s vesicle formation in zebrafish
molecular mechanism(s) of the regulation of Otx2 expression remains to be elucidated. We previously identified the cis-element that drives Otx2 expression in the forebrain and midbrain from E8.5, termed FM enhancer. In this study, we showed that the 157-bp core sequence in the FM enhancer was sufficient for the activation of reporter gene expression in the forebrain and midbrain. The core seque...
متن کاملNINL and DZANK1 Co-function in Vesicle Transport and Are Essential for Photoreceptor Development in Zebrafish
Ciliopathies are Mendelian disorders caused by dysfunction of cilia, ubiquitous organelles involved in fluid propulsion (motile cilia) or signal transduction (primary cilia). Retinal dystrophy is a common phenotypic characteristic of ciliopathies since photoreceptor outer segments are specialized primary cilia. These ciliary structures heavily rely on intracellular minus-end directed transport ...
متن کاملCftr controls lumen expansion and function of Kupffer's vesicle in zebrafish.
Regulated fluid secretion is crucial for the function of most organs. In vertebrates, the chloride channel cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) is a master regulator of fluid secretion. Although the biophysical properties of CFTR have been well characterized in vitro, little is known about its in vivo role during development. Here, we investigated the function of Cftr duri...
