Article Synopsis
- Dyslexia is linked to genetics, especially the KIAA0319 gene, which appears crucial for neurodevelopment, though its exact function isn't clear.
- Research using zebrafish showed that KIAA0319 is highly expressed early in development and later becomes localized in specific structures, including the brain and notochord.
- Unlike its similar gene, kiaa0319-like, KIAA0319 is uniquely expressed in the notochord, indicating it may have distinct roles in structural development, important for body patterning in vertebrates.
