Developmental Plasticity of the Cellular Hypoxia Response in Zebrafish, Danio rerio

In most organisms the cellular response to hypoxia is mediated by the master regulator hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1). Zebrafish embryos can also arrest development (suspended animation) to tolerate low oxygen. I tested the hypothesis that induction of HIF-1 and associated target genes (eg. er...
