Abstract
The collapsin response mediator proteins (CRMPs) are highly expressed in the vertebrate nervous system. CRMP2 has been shown to function in Semaphorin and lysophosphatidic acid induced growth cone collapse. Correspondingly, the highest levels of CRMP2 protein are found in the distal portion of growing axons. To understand the role of CRMP2 during embryonic development we have documented its expression pattern in zebrafish embryos at multiple stages. We find that CRMP2 is expressed in the major neural clusters of the embryonic brain during the primary stages of neurogenesis. From 20 somites through 30 hpf
