Zebrafish mutations affecting retinotectal axon pathfinding.
We have isolated mutants in the zebrafish Danio rerio that have defects in axonal connectivity between the retina and tectum. 5-day-old fish larvae were screened by labeling retinal ganglion cells with DiI and DiO and observing their axonal projections to and on the tectum. 82 mutations, representing 13 complementation groups and 6 single allele loci, were found that have defects in retinal gan...
متن کاملFunctional imaging in the zebrafish retinotectal system using RGECO
Genetically encoded calcium indicators (GECIs) allow repeated, non-invasive measurements of neural activity in defined populations of neurons, but until recently GECIs based on single fluorescent proteins have been limited to the green region of the color spectrum. Recent efforts in protein engineering have expanded the color palette of GECIs. One of these new GECIs, the red RGECO, is spectrall...
متن کاملTopographic wiring of the retinotectal connection in zebrafish.
The zebrafish retinotectal projection provides an attractive model system for studying many aspects of topographic map formation and maintenance. Visual connections initially start to form between 3 and 5 days postfertilization, and remain plastic throughout the life of the fish. Zebrafish are easily manipulated surgically, genetically, and chemically, and a variety of molecular tools exist to ...
متن کاملFish Vision: Size Selectivity in the Zebrafish Retinotectal Pathway
A recent study has shown that the zebrafish tectum processes inputs from the retina tuned to ethologically relevant size classes, suggesting a role for the tectum in selecting approach or avoidance behaviours based on size-based categorization of visual targets.
متن کاملFolate deficiency affects histone methylation
Formaldehyde is extremely toxic reacting with proteins to crosslinks peptide chains. Formaldehyde is a metabolic product in many enzymatic reactions and the question of how these enzymes are protected from the formaldehyde that is generated has largely remained unanswered. Early experiments from our laboratory showed that two liver mitochondrial enzymes, dimethylglycine dehydrogenase (DMGDH) an...
