Dhx34 is required for proper embryonic development in zebrafish. (A) Translation block and splice site MOs against zebrafish Dhx34 cause a distinctive range of developmental phenotypes at 24hpf characterized by shortening of the anteroposterior axis, somite malformation and significant reduction in head size. Morphants injected with the mismatch control MOs are indistinguishable from uninjected wild-type embryos. (B) Co-injection of Dhx34 translation block MO and human full-length DHX34 mRNA rescued the morphant phenotype in 73.8% of the injected embryos at 24 hpf. Expression of the mRNA alone has no overt effect on development. The numbers beside each panel indicate the percentage of embryos with the observed phenotype. Numbers in brackets correspond to the total of analysed embryos.
