Article Synopsis
- Fmn2 is a protein that plays a key role in neuron development and is linked to neurodevelopmental disorders such as sensory processing dysfunction and intellectual disability.
- Recent research in zebrafish has shown that Fmn2b is crucial for the development of specific neural circuits, particularly the spiral fiber neuron pathway that affects the acoustic startle response.
- Findings indicate that while responsiveness to stimuli remains intact, the loss of Fmn2b leads to decreased effectiveness in quick escape responses, emphasizing the importance of Fmn2 in understanding neural development and related disorders.
