- W2912874484 abstract "Abstract Mitochondria are a dynamic eukaryotic innovation that play diverse roles in biology and disease. The mitochondrial genome is remarkably conserved in all vertebrates, encoding the same 37 gene set and overall genomic structure ranging from 16,596 base pairs (bp) in the teleost zebrafish ( Danio rerio ) to 16,569 bp in humans. Mitochondrial disorders are amongst the most prevalent inherited diseases affecting roughly 1 in every 5000 individuals. Currently, few effective treatments exist for those with mitochondrial ailments, representing a major unmet patient need. Mitochondrial dysfunction is also implicated to be a common component of a wide variety of other human illnesses ranging from neurodegenerative disorders like Huntington’s disease and Parkinson’s disease to autoimmune illnesses such as multiple sclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis. The electron transport chain (ETC) component of mitochondria is critical for mitochondrial biology and defects can lead to many mitochondrial disease symptoms. Here we present a publicly available collection of genetic mutants created in highly conserved, nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes in Danio rerio . The zebrafish system represents a potentially powerful new opportunity for the study of mitochondrial biology and disease due to the large number of orthologous genes shared with humans and the many advanced features of this model system from genetics to imaging. This collection includes 22 mutant lines in 18 different genes created by locus-specific gene editing to induce frameshift or splice acceptor mutations leading to predicted protein truncation during translation. Also included are 6 lines created by the random insertion of the gene-breaking transposon (GBT) protein trap cassette. All of these targeted mutant alleles truncate conserved domains of genes critical to the proper function of the ETC or genes that have been implicated in human mitochondrial disease. This collection is designed to accelerate the use of zebrafish to study of many different aspects of mitochondrial function with the goal of widening our understanding of their role in biology and human disease." @default.
