Krx-20, a zinc finger protein, plays an essential role in hindbrain segmentation of vertebrates. Zebrafish gene
frb35 encodes a novel zinc finger protein that shares a high homology with Krx-20. The expression domains of
frb35 overlap those of
krx-20. The expression of
frb35 first occurs in the 3rd rhombomere primordium at the onset of segmentation, which is soon followed by expression in the 5th rhombomere. From mid-segmentation onward, the 5th rhombomere has a higher
frb35 expression level than the 3rd rhombomere. Unlike
krx20,
frb35 expression persists in the 5th rhombomere until the end of pharyngula period.
