Abstract excerpt
Mutation of the gene encoding the Mediator component thyroid hormone receptor-associated protein (TRAP)230/MED12 affects the development of multiple systems in zebrafish embryogenesis. We isolated two ethylnitrosourea-induced alleles in the gene encoding this protein and named the locus kohtalo (kto) after the homologous locus in Drosophila. Homozygous kto mutant zebrafish embryos show defects in brain, neural...
