Knockout of zebrafish desmin genes does not cause skeletal muscle degeneration but alters calcium flux
2020-10-17
Abstract excerpt
Desmin is a muscle-specific intermediate filament protein that has fundamental role in muscle structure and force transmission. Whereas human desmin protein is encoded by a single gene, two desmin paralogs ( desma and desmb ) exist in zebrafish. Desma and desmb show differential spatiotemporal expression during zebrafish embryonic and larval development, being similarly expressed in skeletal muscle until hatch...
