Rev Neurosci 22:49-62. 2011..Understanding the genetic and epigenetic basis for the stress response in vertebrates will help to develop advanced screening and therapies for stress-aggravated diseases such as addiction and mood and anxiety disorders...
Transgenic zebrafish using transposable elementsKarl J Clark
Mayo Clinic, Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Mayo Addiction Research Center, Rochester, Minnesota, USA
Methods Cell Biol 104:137-49. 2011..Together, these data should enable the ready generation of transgenic zebrafish for scientific inquiry...
In vivo genome editing using a high-efficiency TALEN systemVictoria M Bedell
Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota 55905, USA

Mayo Addiction Research Center, Mayo Clinic, 200 First Street SW, Rochester, MN 55905, USA
Hum Genet 131:977-1008. 2012..Expansion of investigations into drug response using model organisms holds the potential to advance our understanding of drug response and addiction in humans...
Functional analysis of slow myosin heavy chain 1 and myomesin-3 in sarcomere organization in zebrafish embryonic slow musclesJin Xu
Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Maryland School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD 21202, USA
J Genet Genomics 39:69-80. 2012..Together, these studies indicate that myosin thick filaments are required for M-line organization and M-line localization of myomesin-3. In contrast, myomesin-3 is dispensable for sarcomere organization in slow muscles...

Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Mayo Addiction Research Center, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota 55905, USA
Zebrafish 8:147-9. 2011..TALEN construction is simpler, potentially more reliable, and in the few cases examined, shows fewer off-target effects than corresponding ZFNs. TALENs promise to bring gene targeting to the majority of zebrafish laboratories...
Transposon tools hopping in vertebratesJun Ni
Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN 55905, USA
Brief Funct Genomic Proteomic 7:444-53. 2008..We have summarized the major transposon vector systems active in vertebrates, comparing and contrasting known critical biochemical and in vivo properties, for future tool design and new genetic applications...
