Fig. 5

Iridoblast marker co-localizes with melanoblast markers. (A–O) Confocal images collected from lateral aspect of anterior tail region of fixed zebrafish, 20x. (A–C) Cells co-stained with mitfa riboprobe (red) and pnp4a riboprobe (green) reveal a considerable overlap at 24 hpf (A) and a diminishing overlap as development proceeds (B,C). mitfa:gfp transgenic reveals that mitfa+ cells overlap with pnp4a expression at 24 hpf (D–F) and resolve at 50 hpf (G–I). (D,G) mitfa:gfp (E,H) pnp4a. (F,I) Color merged: green: GFP expression, red: pnp4a mRNA (inset 40x). Wild-type embryos reveal that dct+ cells overlap with pnp4a expression at 24 hpf (J–L) then resolve at 26 hpf (M–O). (J,M) dct (K,N) pnp4a. (L,O) Color merged: green: dct mRNA, red: pnp4a mRNA (inset 40x). (P,Q) Percent of overlap between chromatoblast markers (see Table 1). (P) Green line = % of mitfa:gfp+ cells that are mitfa:gfp+/pnp4a+. Red line = % of pnp4a+ cells that are mitfa:gfp+/pnp4a+. (Q) Green line = % of dct+ cells that are dct+/pnp4a+. Red line - % of pnp4a+ cells that are dct+/pnp4a+. Scale bars: (A–C) 40 μm; (D–O) 60 μm; (F,I,L,O inset) 30 μm.
