Successive Induction in Larval Zebrafish
Activating one reflex often facilitates another, antagonistic one. Since Charles Sherrington first identified successive induction more than 100 years ago, it has been demonstrated in a wide range …

Xenopus and Zebrafish Annotation in the UniProt Knowledgebase (UniProtKB)
The African clawed frog Xenopus laevis and the zebrafish Danio rerio have both proved to be good model organisms for studying early vertebrate cellular and developmental biology. More recently, the…

Update On The Zebrafish Genome Project
The zebrafish genome, which consists of 25 linkage groups and is ~1.4Gb in size, is being sequenced, finished and analysed in its entirety at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute. The manual annotat…

Expression of Green Fluorescence Protein (GFP) in Zebrafish Muscle through Injection: A Gene Therapy Model
Expression of the target gene is important for gene therapy. Presently, localized transgenesis is used for gene therapy which can be achieved by a target gene expression. Here, we have reported the…

Micro-magnetic resonance imaging (micro-MRI) study on the sepsis effected eyeball of zebrafish
We have studied the normal and sepsis effected zebrafish eyeball with micro-magnetic resonance imaging (micro-MRI). T2 weighted image was studied and pixel-wise T2 maps were co registered among the…

Characterization of Fut10 and Fut11, Putative Alpha-1-3/4 Fucosyltransferase Genes Important for Vertebrate Development
Two new, putative alpha-1-3/4 fucosyltransferases (α1-3/4 Fuc-Ts), Fuc-TX and Fuc-TXI, were identified in the vertebrate genome and transcriptome sequence databases through sequence homology-...
