EF-hand domain containing 2 (Efhc2) is crucial for distal segmentation of pronephros in zebrafish
Abstract Background The blood filtering organ in zebrafish embryos is the pronephros, which consists of two functional nephrons. Segmentation of a nephron into different domains is essential for its function and is well conserved among vertebrates. Zebrafish has been extensively used as a model to u...
