In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system. Our study highlights the importance of using appropriate genetic controls and establishes a roadmap for identifying positional effects in new transgenic lines.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system. Our study highlights the importance of using appropriate genetic controls and establishes a roadmap for identifying positional effects in new transgenic lines.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system. Our study highlights the importance of using appropriate genetic controls and establishes a roadmap for identifying positional effects in new transgenic lines.

We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system. Our study highlights the importance of using appropriate genetic controls and establishes a roadmap for identifying positional effects in new transgenic lines.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system. Our study highlights the importance of using appropriate genetic controls and establishes a roadmap for identifying positional effects in new transgenic lines.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system. Our study highlights the importance of using appropriate genetic controls and establishes a roadmap for identifying positional effects in new transgenic lines.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system. Our study highlights the importance of using appropriate genetic controls and establishes a roadmap for identifying positional effects in new transgenic lines.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system. Our study highlights the importance of using appropriate genetic controls and establishes a roadmap for identifying positional effects in new transgenic lines.

In zebrafish the Tgelavl3:KalTA4 HuC line drives robust expression in neurons. We observed an increased prevalence of swim bladder defects in Tgelavl3:KalTA4 zebrafish larvae compared to wildtype siblings which prompted us to investigate whether transgenic larvae display additional neurobehavioral phenotypes. Tgelavl3:KalTA4 larvae showed alterations in brain activity brain morphology and behavior including increased hindbrain size and reduced activity of the cerebellum. Bulk RNA seq analysis revealed massive dysregulation of the transcriptome and suggested an increased ratio of neuronal progenitor cells compared to differentiated neurons. To understand whether these phenotypes derive from Gal4 toxicity or from positional effects related to transgenesis we used economical low pass whole genome sequencing to map the Tol2 mediated insertion site to chromosome eight. Reduced expression of the neighboring gene gadd45ga a known cell cycle regulator is consistent with increased proliferation and suggests a role for positional effects. Challenges with creating alternative pan neuronal lines include the length of the elavl3 HuC promoter 9 kb and random insertion using traditional transgenesis methods. To facilitate the generation of alternative lines we cloned five neuronal promoters atp6v0cb elavl3 rtn1a sncb and stmn1b ranging from 1.7 kb to 4.3 kb and created KalTA4 lines using Tol2 and the phiC31 integrase based pIGLET system.

We show that osteoprogenitors are enriched with components associated with epithelial to mesenchymal transition EMT and its reverse mesenchymal to epithelial transition MET. Trajectory analyses indicate osteoblastic cells solely expressed EMT components or transiently expressed components for MET before EMT. We provide evidence that the EMT markers cdh11 and twist2 are co expressed in dedifferentiating cells at the amputation stump and in differentiating osteoblastic cells in the regenerate the latter of which are enriched in EMT signatures. We also show that esrp1 a regulator of alternative splicing in epithelial cells that is associated with MET is expressed in a subset of osteoprogenitors during outgrowth. This study provides a single cell resource for the study of osteoblastic cells during zebrafish fin regeneration and supports the contribution of MET and EMT associated components to this process.

While the stereotyped consistent phenotypes associated with environmental stress during vertebrate development suggest that some cell types are more sensitive to stress than others the basis of this sensitivity is unknown. Here we characterize hundreds of individual zebrafish embryos under temperature stress using whole animal single cell RNA seq to identify cell types and molecular programs within them that drive phenotypic variability. We find that temperature perturbs the normal proportions and gene expression programs of numerous cell types and also introduces asynchrony in their development. The notochord is particularly sensitive to temperature stress which we show is due to a specialized cell type sheath cells. Further analyses show that sheath cells accumulate misfolded protein at elevated temperature leading to a cascading structural failure of the notochord and irreversible anatomic defects in the embryo.
