Summary
This paper discusses the role of PIKfyve, a phosphoinositide kinase, in the retina using zebrafish as a model, and explores the use of various gene editing technologies to create a patient mimic mutant line.
Categories
Eye health: The paper focuses on the role of PIKfyve in the retina, studying its effects on retinal dystrophy phenotype in zebrafish.
