Fig. S5

Skin melanocytes are hypopigmented in lbk. Skin melanocytes in wild-type (A,B) and lbk mutant larvae (C,D) at 5 dpf. (B,D) Higher magnifications of regions in A and C, respectively. Melanosome number is substantially reduced in the lbk melanocytes (C), which leads to the hypopigmentation characteristic of these mutants, and the abnormally shaped melanosomes (D, arrowheads). Despite a majority of abnormally small and misshapen melanosomes, lbk skin melanocytes contain some melanosomes displaying wild-type size, shape and levels of melanin pigmentation (arrow). Scale bars: 5 μm in A,C; 1 μm in B,D.
