Ontogeny of stxbp1a and stxbp1b expression in zebrafish larvae.Wild-type zebrafish were probed for expression of stxbp1a mRNA (A-E) or stxbp1b mRNA (F-J). Abbreviations: CeP: cerebellar plate, Ha: habenula, IR: inner retina, MO: medulla oblongata, OB: olfactory bulb, P: pallium, Ret: retina, SC: spinal cord, Tel: telencephalon, TeO: optic tectum, Scale bar = 100µm.

Morphology of stxbp1as3000 mutant zebrafish.(A) Heterozygous stxbp1as3000/+ mutant larvae (5 dpf) are morphologically indistinguishable from wild-type siblings. Homozygous stxbp1as3000/s3000 mutant larvae are immobile and fail to hatch out of the chorion. Scale bar = 500 µm. (B) Homozygous stxbp1as3000/s3000 mutant larvae (n = 10) removed from their chorions are not significantly different in length from their siblings (n = 30; p = 0.0592, two-tailed t-test). (C-D) At 5 dpf, the dorsal surface of homozygous stxbp1as3000/s3000 mutant larvae that were removed from their chorions at 2 dpf (D) show dispersed melanin and foreshortened craniofacial structure compared to siblings (C). Scale bar = 300 µm.

Morphology of stxbp1bs3001 mutant zebrafish.(A) Both heterozygous stxbp1bs3001/+ and homozygous stxbp1bs3001/s3001 mutant larvae (5 dpf) are morphologically similar to their wild-type siblings. Scale bar = 500 µm. (B) Homozygous stxbp1bs3001/s3001 mutant larvae (n = 8) are not significantly different in length from their siblings (n = 13) (p = 0.2297, two-tailed t-test). (C-D) The dorsal surface of homozygous stxbp1bs3001/s3001 mutant larvae (D) show dispersed melanin compared to siblings (C). Scale bar = 300 µm.
