A robust and quantitative map links chromatin modification and gene expression of cells during zebrafish embryogenesis.
Scientists headed by a team at the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub San Francisco (CZ Biohub SF) reported on the development of Zebrahub, a dynamic, state-of-the-art atlas of zebrafish embryonic development.
Researchers confirm using zebrafish that if a certain gene is not excluded when vertebrate embryos are developing, the notochord will not elongate properly, resulting in a shortened form. Can a single ...
When early cartographers undertook perilous expeditions to map unknown corners of the world with sextants, compasses, and hand-drawn diagrams, it’s unlikely they imagined that someday anyone with an ...
How does a tiny cluster of cells become an embryo with a head, trunk, and tail? And how do thousands of genes coordinate this development? A new imaging method makes it possible to visualize the ...
Zebrafish eggs contain a sunscreen called gadusol that protects the growing embryo from harmful rays. The ultraviolet rays in sunlight are damaging. To shield against this, vertebrates produce a ...
A question left unanswered in a biologist’s lab notebook for 40 years has finally been explained, thanks to a little fish that couldn’t wriggle its tail. New research from the University of Oregon ...
The zebrafish organism has been utilized as a model to analyze biomaterials in various applications, such as bioimaging, simulating human disease, nanotoxicity, epigenomics, regenerative medicine, and ...
