tubg1 Somatic Mutants Show Tubulinopathy-Associated Neurodevelopmental Phenotypes in a Zebrafish Model.

Development of the multilayered cerebral cortex relies on precise orchestration of neurogenesis, neuronal migration, and differentiation, processes tightly regulated by microtubule dynamics. Mutations in tubulin superfamily genes have been associated with tubulinopathies, encompassing a spectrum of cortical malformations including microcephaly and lissencephaly. Here, we focus on γ-tubulin, a pivotal regulator of microtubule nucleation encoded by TUBG1.
