Morphology of <i>stxbp1b</i>^<i>s3001</i> mutant zebrafish.

Abstract

<p>(A) Both heterozygous <i>stxbp1b</i>^{<i>s3001/+</i>} and homozygous <i>stxbp1b</i>^{<i>s3001/s3001</i>} mutant larvae (5 dpf) are morphologically similar to their wild-type siblings. Scale bar = 500 μm. (B) Homozygous <i>stxbp1b</i>^{<i>s3001/s3001</i>} mutant larvae (n = 8) are not significantly different in length from their siblings (n = 13) (p = 0.2297, two-tailed t-test). (C-D) The dorsal surface of homozygous <i>stxbp1b</i>^{<i>s3001/s3001</i>} mutant larvae (D) show dispersed melanin compared to siblings (C). Scale bar = 300 μm.</p
