Oxylipins and Other Natural Products Produced by UV-sterilization Impact Commercial Oyster Larvae Production in a New England Estuary

Bethanie R. Edwards, Meredith White, Scarlett Schroeder, Amanda Clapp, Bill Mook, Rich Smith, Andy Stevenson, Steve Zimmerman

The paper links UV sterilization in a New England oyster hatchery to increased oxylipins and other compounds that harm larval development, but also introduces a bacterial pathogen when UV is removed.

The zebrafish mutant dreammist implicates sodium homeostasis in sleep regulation

Ida L. Barlow, Eirinn Mackay, Emily Wheater, Aimee Goel, Sumi Lim, Steve Zimmerman, Ian G. Woods, David A. Prober, Jason Rihel

The paper identifies a novel zebrafish sleep mutant, dreammist, and shows that disruption of a sodium pump regulator affects sleep duration through altered sodium homeostasis.

Zebrafish Dscaml1 is Essential for Retinal Patterning and Function of Oculomotor Subcircuits

Manxiu Ma, Alexandro D. Ramirez, Tong Wang, Rachel L. Roberts, Katherine E. Harmon, David Schoppik, Avirale Sharma, Christopher Kuang, Stephanie L. Goei, James A. Gagnon, Steve Zimmerman, Shengdar Q. Tsai, Deepak Reyon, J. Keith Joung, Emre R. F. Aksay, , Y. Albert Pan

This study shows that zebrafish dscaml1 is crucial for retinal patterning and oculomotor circuit function, with mutations causing deficits in gaze stabilization and saccade fatigue similar to human ocular motor apraxia.
