Saving zebrafish mutants.

Abstract excerpt

At present, the zebrafish Danio rerio is the only vertebrate species for which a large-scale mutagenesis effort to identify developmental genes has been reported. Several laboratories are now intensely pursuing the molecular characterization of the genes affected by these mutations. One important criterion for the identity of the mutated gene is the rescue of the mutant phenotype by a wild-type (wt) copy of the...
