First, they put the six human outer ear enhancers that control genes into the genome of zebrafish, and they used a fluorescent reporter gene that lit up to identify the location in the body where ...

fluorescent protein. Prior research has shown that synthesizing proteins can provide unique insights into the structure and function of natural proteins. To date, most such proteins are copies of ...

However, nowadays lateralization is known to occur among all vertebrates, from primates to fish. Fish, especially zebrafish (Danio rerio), have emerged as a crucial model for exploring the evolution ...

For 43 days in 2024, four zebrafish orbited China’s Tiangong space station, surviving in space longer than any fish before them. Last April, the zebrafish traveled aboard the Shenzhou-18 spacecraft, ...

Skeletal formation is then evaluated at 7dpf and 14dpf, first using a transgenic reporter line revealing fluorescent osteoblasts, second using alizarin-red staining of mineralized structures. In ...

The paper presents a streamlined new approach for functional validation of genes known to underlie fragile bone disorders in a relatively high throughput, using CRISPR-mediated knockouts and a number ...

"The zebrafish are transparent at their larval stage, and that allows us to quantify and visualize the porphyrin, which is fluorescent," said Ning Kuo, the first author of the study who worked ...

Fluorescent dyes are non-protein molecules that absorb light and re-emit it at a longer wavelength. They are often used in the fluorescent labelling of biomolecules and can be smaller or more ...
