Abstract excerpt
Biallelic variants in thioredoxin-related transmembrane 2 protein (TMX2) can cause a malformation of brain cortical development characterized by microcephaly, polymicrogyria and pachygyria by an unknown mechanism. To investigate and visualize how TMX2 loss disrupts brain development in vivo, we generated zebrafish deficient for TMX2 ortholog tmx2b, which during the first two developmental days showed normal brain...
