The analysis of the first 1000 revertible protein trap alleles in zebrafish resulted in new functional genomic annotations and produced a panel of potential new models of human disease.
The completion of neural tube closure requires small GTPase-regulated membrane protrusions from non-neural ectoderm cells at the tips of the neural folds.

iMyoblasts, a novel iPS-derived PAX3 muscle stem cell for gene editing, muscle engraftment, and stem cell therapeutics to treat muscle injury and muscular dystrophies.
Genevieve C Kendall, Sarah Watson ... James F Amatruda
The basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor, HES3, acts downstream of the PAX3-FOXO1 fusion oncogene to impair muscle differentiation and promote tumorigenesis in rhabdomyosarcoma, a childhood muscle cancer.

Some NKX2-5 mutations that cause congenital heart disease retain transcriptional activity and can bind to many off-target genes, in part through their interactions with cofactors.
The Hippo signaling restricts the number of SHF cardiomyocytes in the venous pole by negatively regulating Bmp-Smad signaling in the cells of lateral plate mesoderm.
