Figure Caption

Fig. 1 Loss of Leo1 function results in cardiac abnormalities and absence of pigmentation (A, B, C) Lateral view of a two-day-old wild-type embryo (A), a leo1^LA1186 mutant (B) and a leo1^LA1186 mutant injected with wild-type leo1 mRNA (C). (D, E, F, G) Dorsal view. Expression patterns of cardiac markers, nkx2.5 (D, E) and cmlc2 (F, G), are indistinguishable between wild-type siblings (D, F) and leo1^LA1186 mutants (E, G) at the 10 somite stage and 24 h post fertilization, respectively. (H, I) Histological sections. In contrast to wild-type hearts (H), the cardiac chambers of leo1^LA1186 mutants are collapsed by 2 dpf (I). o, outflow tract; v, ventricle; a, atrium; sv, sinus venosus.
