β-Arrestin1 Is Evolutionarily Conserved in Zebrafish

(A) The phylogenetic tree of β-arrestins. Phylogenetic tree was built by neighbor-joining algorithm using CLUSTAL X. The scale bar indicates 10% amino acid substitutions. Vertebrate arrestins were categorized into visual and nonvisual arrestins, while the evolutionary conservation of β-arrestin1 is higher than β-arrestin2.

(B) Genomic structures of human, mouse and zebrafish β-arrestin1. Black boxes indicate coding exons, and gray boxes indicate noncoding exons.

(C) Antibody staining of β-arrestin1 during zebrafish development. Antibody specifically recognizes zebrafish β-arrestin1 (A1CT) was utilized for whole embryo immunostaining. The developmental time points were indicated in the panels.

(D) Western blot analyses of β-arrestin1 knockdown efficiency. Embryos without injection (NI, lane 1), injected with 4 ng control morpholino (Ctrl MO, lane 2) or 4 ng β-arrestin1 morpholino (Arrb1 MO, lane 3) were harvested at 48 hpf, protein samples were prepared and probed with β-arrestin1-specific antibody (A1CT). β-Actin was used as the loading control.

(E) Phenotypic analyses of zebrafish embryos at 24 hpf. Embryos without injection (NI), injected with 4 ng control morpholino (Ctrl MO), 4 ng β-arrestin1 morpholino (Arrb1 MO), or 4 ng β-arrestin1 morpholino plus 100 pg human β-arrestin1 mRNA (hArrb1 mRNA) were analyzed.

(F) Statistics of zebrafish phenotypic analyses. The number of embryos analyzed in each group was indicated.
