Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Notch signaling is an evolutionarily conserved developmental pathway. Zebrafish mind bomb (mib) mutants carry mutations on mib gene, which encodes a RING E3 ligase required for Notch activation via Delta/Jagged ubiquitylation and internalization. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: We examined the mib mutants for defects in pancreas development using in situ hybridization and GFP expression analysis of...
