Fig. 1

klf2 mutants exhibit a cardiomyocyte extrusion phenotype.

(A–B) Partial sequence alignment of klf2a^bns11 (A) and klf2b^bns12 (B) alleles with WT and schematics of their predicted protein products. (C–D) Representative brightfield images of a WT (C) and a klf2a^bns11/bns11; klf2b^bns12/bns12 double mutant (hereafter referred to as klf2 mutant) at 96 hpf (D); lateral views, anterior to the left; arrowhead points to pericardial edema. (E–F’) Maximum intensity projections of 96 hpf klf2 WT (E–E’) and mutant (F–F’) hearts; (G–H’) Two-dimensional (2D) confocal images of 96 hpf klf2 WT (G–G’) and mutant (H–H’) hearts; ventricular outer curvature (dashed boxes) in (E, F, G and H) magnified in (E’, F’, G’ and H’), respectively. (I–J) Three-dimensional reconstructions from confocal images of 96 hpf klf2 mutant ventricular wall. Arrows point to extruding cardiomyocytes; V: ventricle; At: atrium; scale bars: 0.5 mm (C–D), 50 µm (E–H), 20 µm (I–J).
