Mutations in the genes freixenet (frx) and yquem (yqe) cause erythropoietic porphyria phenotypes. Mutant and wild-type embryos were examined under 330 to 380 nm UV light for autofluorescence. (A) A wild-type 2- day old embryo does not have autofluorescent blood. (B) The blood of 2-day old frx^tu271 homozygotes is brightly autofluorescent under the same conditions. (C) The blood of 2-day old yqe^tp61 homozygotes is also autofluorescent. In addition, the yqe^tp61 mutants rapidly develop pericardial edema when exposed to bright light.
