It has been reported that FoxD1 plays important roles in formation of several different tissues, such as retina and kidney in vertebrates. The function of FoxD1 in muscle development is, however, unclear although it is expressed in muscle cells in zebrafish. Muscles are the major tissue in fish, which serves as a rich protein source in our diet. To further understand the function of FoxD1 in fish muscle development, here we isolated and characterized the FoxD1 gene from flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus), a valuable sea food and an important fish species in aquaculture in Asia. We analyzed its expression pattern and function in regulating myogenic regulatory factor, MyoD, one of the earliest marker of myogenic commitment. In situ hybridization revealed that FoxD1 was expressed in the tailbud, adaxial cells, posterior intestine, forebrain, midbrain and half of the retina in flounder embryos. Functional studies demonstrated that when flounder FoxD1 was over-expressed in zebrafish by microinjection, MyoD expression was decreased, suggesting that FoxD1 may be involved in myogenesis by regulating the expression of MyoD.
