Abstract excerpt
While the experimental tools developed for zebrafish have continued to advance the organism as a laboratory model, techniques for reverse genetics remain somewhat limited in scope. Zinc finger nucleases (ZFNs), chimeric fusions between DNA-binding zinc finger proteins and the non-specific cleavage domain of the FokI endonuclease, hold great promise for targeted mutagenesis in zebrafish, as demonstrated by two...
