Otolith formation is defective in camk2g1 morphants. Gross morphology of otoliths was assessed at 30 hpf (A–C) and 72 hpf (D–F) in embryos injected with 1 ng control MO (A, D) or 1 ng camk2g1 MO (B, C, E, F). Scale bar (50 μm) in A applies to A–C and in D applies to D–F. Defects in otolith shape were quantitated at 72 hpf for 186 morphant embryos and compared to 118 control embryos (G). P-CaMK-II (red) at the base of the kinocilia in 24 hpf control (H, H′) embryos (arrowhead) was lost in camk2g1 morphants (I, I′). Cilia were counterstained with anti-acetylated tubulin (green) with anterior on the left. Scale bars in H, I=5 μm. |
