Genetic proofs validate identification of Zbtb11 from positional cloning (supports Fig. 1d) a. Phenocopy of mne hydrocephalus phenotype (open arrow) and microphthalmia (solid arrow) phenotypes and neutrophil-depletion phenotypes (fluorescence images) by antisense morpholino oligonucleotide knockdown of Zbtb11 in WT embryos; b. Enumeration of neutrophils in morphant embryos represented in a; n numbers are shown within columns; c. Rescue of mne hydrocephalus (open arrow) and microphthalmia (solid arrow) phenotypes and neutrophil-depletion phenotype (grey arrows in fluorographs) by overexpression of WT but not C116S Zbtb11 mRNA in mne embryos; d. Enumeration of neutrophils in morphant embryos represented in c; n numbers are shown within columns; e. Additional zbtb11 allele generated by CRISPR/Cas9 locus genome editing. Shown is sequence for WT zbtb11 and a zbtb11Cr CRISPR allele with predicted premature stop codon at amino acid 56; f. Non-complementation of mne allele by zbtb11Cr allele in mne;zbtb11Cr transheterozygotes (black arrow, microphthalmia; grey arrows, neutrophils); Panels a, c, f scale bar = 200 μm. |
