Distinct and redundant roles for zebrafish her genes during mineralization and craniofacial patterning

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Amanda Stenzel from the University of Bristol, United Kingdom have published the research: Distinct and redundant roles for zebrafish her genes during mineralization and craniofacial patterning, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: The authors propose that the ancestral role of her/hes genes is in both patterning and mineralization, but that these functions were subfunctionalized resulting in her9 primarily functioning in bone mineralization while retaining vestigial, partially Frontiers in Endocrinology redundant patterning function. The authors propose that the her/hes family is highly redundant and interchangeable, and is therefore prone to gene losses and changes . . .
