Crump and his colleagues inserted human outer ear enhancers into zebrafish genomes. The experiment triggered activity in the ...

Remarkably, when human ear enhancers were introduced into zebrafish, they activated specifically in the gills. Conversely, ...

When they put human ear enhancers into zebrafish, those enhancers became active in the fish’s gills. Then they did the opposite, using fish gill enhancers in mice, and those enhancers turned on ...

Adgrg6 is a human disease gene, and the zebrafish protein has roles both in the inner ear and in peripheral myelination. We are using the zebrafish embryo as a screening platform to identify small ...

The Zebrafish Genetic and Phenotyping Core provides expertise and equipment to support your experiments with zebrafish as an in vivo model. The Core can generate zebrafish with mutations in specific ...

As a vertebrate, the zebrafish possesses many genes that perform the same or similar functions in mammals and therefore also in humans. Approximately 70 percent of zebrafish genes are also present in ...

Zebrafish are unassuming and undemanding. Almost every child knows that – at least any child that has kept fish in an aquarium. Since the beginning of the 20th century, these fish have been one of the ...

Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a small freshwater fish that is an extensively studied vertebrate model organism. It can be bred rapidly in large numbers, is amenable to genetics, and has a clear ...
