kitla Overexpression Causes Hyperpigmentation in Wild-type but Not in kitab5 Embryos (A) Wild-type larva. (B) Larva injected with kitla::JRed fusion construct shows hyperpigmentation with melanocytes covering a larger area than wild-type. (C) kita larva. (D) kitla::JRed injected into kitb5 embryos results in kitb5 phenotype. (E) kitla::JRed hyperpigmented larvae have more melanocytes on the dorsal stripe than do wild-type. When kitla expression vector is injected into kita embryos, there is no change in the number of melanocytes. All larvae at 6 dpf (n = 10). Scale bars: 150 μm. |
