The zebrafish orthologue of the dyslexia candidate gene DYX1C1 is essential for cilia growth and function.

DYX1C1, a susceptibility gene for dyslexia, encodes a tetratricopeptide repeat domain containing protein that has been implicated in neuronal migration in rodent models. The developmental role of this gene remains unexplored. To understand the biological function(s) of zebrafish dyx1c1 during embryo...
