Dnmt3 and G9a Cooperate for Tissue-specific Development in Zebrafish*
Although DNA methylation is critical for proper embryonic and tissue-specific development, how different DNA methyltransferases affect tissue-specific development and their targets remains unknown. We address this issue in zebrafish through antisense-based morpholino knockdown of Dnmt3 and Dnmt1. Our data reveal that Dnmt3 is required for proper neurogenesis, and its absence results in profound...
متن کاملEmbryonic and tissue-specific regulation of myostatin-1 and -2 gene expression in zebrafish.
Myostatin is a member of the TGF-beta superfamily and a potent negative regulator of muscle growth and development in mammals. Its expression is limited primarily to skeletal muscle in mammals, but occurs in many different fish tissues, although quantitative measurements of the embryonic and tissue-specific expression profiles are lacking. A recent phylogenetic analysis of all known myostatin g...
متن کاملThe Role and Regulation of Etv2 in Zebrafish Vascular Development: A Dissertation
The signature of the Dean of the Graduate School of Biomedical Sciences signifies that the student has met all graduation requirements of the school. He taught me the meaning and value of hard work. Thanks Dad. I miss you. iv Acknowledgements I would like to thank Dr. Nathan Lawson, my graduate mentor. Nathan, you have taught me to think critically, encouraged me to work hard and accepted nothi...
متن کاملDistinct tissue-specific requirements for the zebrafish tbx5 genes during heart, retina and pectoral fin development
The transcription factor Tbx5 is expressed in the developing heart, eyes and anterior appendages. Mutations in human TBX5 cause Holt-Oram syndrome, a condition characterized by heart and upper limb malformations. Tbx5-knockout mouse embryos have severely impaired forelimb and heart morphogenesis from the earliest stages of their development. However, zebrafish embryos with compromised tbx5 func...
متن کاملCell type and tissue specific function of islet genes in zebrafish pancreas development
Isl1 is a LIM homeobox transcription factor showing conserved expression in the developing and mature vertebrate pancreas. So far, functions of pancreatic Isl1 have mainly been studied in the mouse, where Isl1 has independent functions during formation of exocrine and endocrine tissues. Here, we take advantage of a recently described isl1 mutation in zebrafish to address pancreatic isl1 functio...
