Abstract excerpt
The mechanism of retinal cell death was studied in mutant zebrafish (Danio rerio) which undergo inherited degeneration of the retina and the brain. The shrunken head (shr(m33)) mutation was isolated as part of a large scale mutagenesis screen. The yellow head (yhd) mutation arose spontaneously among inbred wild type zebrafish. Although the mutants share many morphological features, including small eyes, a small...
