Highlights

► Cilia-driven counterclockwise fluid flow in zebrafish Kupffer’s Vesicle (KV) resulted in left–right patterning during embryonic development. ► We find that Ectoderm-Neural Cortex 1-like (enc1l) is necessary for KV ciliogenesis in zebrafish embryo development. ► Loss-of-function of enc1l increased the number and decreased the length of KV cilia. ► The enc1l expression in the KV region was specifically regulated by retinoic acid (RA), FGF, and Wnt signaling pathways. ► Accordingly, knocking down Enc1l or ectopic enc1lexpression was able to rescue the KV cilium defects caused by alteration of RA and FGF signaling, but not Wnt signaling. ► These data indicate that Enc1l is a direct downstream effector of RA and FGF signaling pathways and modulates KV ciliogenesis in the zebrafish embryo.
