| dc.description.abstract | The reserve of glycogen is essential for embryonic development. In oviparous fish, egg is an isolated system after egg laying with all the required energy deposits by their mothers. However, the key regulated factor mediates the storage of maternal glycogen reserve which support for embryogenesis in the offspring is largely unknown. Glycogen synthase (GYS) is a central enzyme for glycogen synthesis. In our previous study, we generated a gys1 knockout zebrafish line, showed an embryonic developmental defect in F3 generation. In this study, firstly we determined that the gys1 was maternal origin by backcrossing the F2 mutant with wildtype lines. PAS staining and glycogen content measurement showed that glycogen reserve was reduced both in ovaries and embryos in the mutant group compared to wildtypes. Free glucose measurement analysis showed a 50 % of reduction in gys1 mutant embryos compared to wildtype embryos at 24 hpf; showed an approximal 50 % of reduction in gys1 mutant adults compared to wildtypes. Microinjection of 2-NBDG in embryos and comparison of fluorescent signal demonstrated that glucose uptake ability was decreased in the mutant embryos, indicating an impaired glucose metabolism. Untargeted metabolomics analysis then was employed and revealed that key modified metabolites enriched into vitamin B pathway, carbohydrate and unsaturated fatty acid pathways. These results demonstrated that gys1 played a role on glycogen metabolism, involved into the maternal glycogen reserve which essentially contribute to embryonic development. | eng |
