Zebrash (Danio rerio) have become a popular vertebrate model to study embryological development,
because of unique advantages not found in other model systems. Zebrash share many gene functions
with other vertebrates including humans, making zebrash a useful system for studying cancer etiology.
However, systematic studies of DNA damage and repair pathways using adult or embryonic zebrash have
not been extensively reported. The zebrash genome contains nearly all the genes involved in different
DNA repair pathways in eukaryotes, including direct reversal (DR), mismatch repair (MMR) nucleotide
excision repair (NER), base excision repair (BER), homologous recombination (HR), non-homologous end
joining (NHEJ) and translesion synthesis (TLS). It also includes the genes of the p53-mediated damage
recognition pathway. Therefore, zebrash provide an ideal model for gaining fundamental insights into
mechanisms of DNA damage and repair, especially during embryological development. This review intro-
duces recent work on different DNA damage and repair studies in zebrash, with special emphasis on the
role of BER in zebrash early embryological development. AP endonuclease 1 (Apex1), a critical protein in
the BER pathway, not only regulates BER but also controls cyclic AMP response binding protein (Creb1),
which itself regulates 25% of eukaryotic coding sequences. In addition, Apex1 indirectly regulates levels
of p53. As these ndings also occur in murine B cells, they illustrate the usefulness of the zebrash system
in elucidating fundamental mechanisms.
