Summary: By combining CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing with STED super-resolution microscopy, Wong-Dilworth et al. investigate the localization and roles of ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) GTPases in cellular membranes. They find that ARF1, ARF4, and ARF5 exist on segregated nanodomains in the cis-Golgi and ER-Golgi intermediate compartments, indicating distinct roles in COPI recruitment. Additionally, ARF1 and ARF3 localize to segregated nanodomains on the trans-Golgi network and are present on TGN-derived post-Golgi tubules, suggesting distinct functions in post-Golgi sorting.

Summary: This study utilized the CRISPR/Cas9 system and homology directed repair to introduce a myc epitope sequence into the zebrafish genome. The expressed tagged protein was successfully detected using western blot and immunofluorescence techniques. This methodology has important implications for zebrafish researchers and others interested in developing animal models with endogenously tagged proteins.

Summary: To detect cyanide and hypochlorite anions in environmental and biological samples, a new molecular sensor based on oligothiophene and Meldrum's acid units was developed. The sensor exhibited high selectivity, excellent sensitivity, short response time, and a broad pH working range. It was successfully applied for the detection of hypochlorite and cyanide in real-world samples and bioimaging in live cells and zebrafish, making it the seventh single-molecular sensor capable of simultaneous and discriminative detection in various environments.

Summary: Research has shown that different temperatures have varying effects on fish intestinal epithelial cells, with thermal stability being a key factor. Under hypothermic or hyperthermic conditions, the ability of intestinal epithelial cells to close gaps is compromised, but at optimal temperatures, cell shape, actin organization, and migration capabilities are maintained.

Summary: This study develops an in vivo assay to measure endogenous NADPH/NADP+ dynamics in pancreatic beta cells of live zebrafish embryos using the Apollo-NADP+ sensor. Results show that pyruvate cycling is the main source of NADP+ reduction in beta cells, with contributions from folate cycling. Additionally, stress induces an increase in folate cycling in beta cells, which requires increased glycolytic intermediates and cytosolic NAD+.
