The ubiquitin-binding protein p62, encoded by Sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1), is an essential molecular adaptor for selective autophagy. Heterozygous mutations deleting or disrupting the ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain of p62 have been reported as the major genetic cause for Paget's disease of bone (PDB), the second most common skeletal disease, characterized by hyperactive osteoclasts and focal increases of bone turnover. In this study, we aimed to determine the impact of a similar sqstm1/p62 mutation on the skeleton of zebrafish. We successfully established a sqstm1
