From zebrafish heart jogging genes to mouse and human orthologs: using Gene Ontology to investigate mammalian heart development.
2014-02-10
Abstract excerpt
For the majority of organs in developing vertebrate embryos, left-right asymmetry is controlled by a ciliated region; the left-right organizer node in the mouse and human, and the Kuppfer’s vesicle in the zebrafish. In the zebrafish, laterality cues from the Kuppfer’s vesicle determine asymmetry in the developing heart, the direction of ‘heart jogging’ and the direction of ‘heart looping’. ‘Heart jogging’ is the...
