Mutation of the GDP-Fucose Biosynthesis Gene GMDS Increases Hair Cell Number and Neuromast Regenerative Capacity in Zebrafish

    Mahmud-ul Ameen, Gerissa Fowler, Curtis R. French
    Studysummary This study found that zebrafish with a mutation in the GDP-fucose biosynthesis gene exhibited enhanced and faster regeneration of mechanosensory hair cells, implicating the importance of this gene and Notch signalling regulation in hair cell regeneration mechanisms.
