Proper Balance of Small GTPase <i>rab10</i> Is Critical for PGC Migration in Zebrafish
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important roles in post-transcriptional repression in nearly every biological process including germ cell development. Previously, we have identified a zebrafish germ plasm-specific miRNA <i>miR-202-5p</i>, which regulates PGC migration through targeting <i>...
