Fig. 1

Joint formation in zebrafish fin rays. (A) Fins were stained with the osteoblast marker ZNS5, and detected using HRP (brown). At this level joints are detected as condensations of ZNS5-positive cells, which appear with differing maturities along the proximal–distal axis. Joint 1 is the most-distal joint and the least mature. At higher magnification distinct morphologies of ZNS5-positive cells can be observed (and outlines of the ZNS5-positive cells are shown to the right). (B) The morphology of the bone matrix in the newest joint is observed using calcein. (C) The morphology of the bone matrix in a fully mature joint is observed using calcein. Arrowheads point to joints.
