Cald1 mutation has mild locomotory phenotype in zebrafish larvae Analyses of behavior and locomotion of cald1a and cald1b mutants in 96-well assay using DanioVision instrument. After the adaptation phase, an alternating light-dark cycles (5min light, 5min darkness) were used to stimulate movements. Some genotypes were pooled to increase statistical power. A) control (n = 52, genotypes wt; cald1a+/− and cald1b+/−) vs cald1a, cald1b double-mutants (n = 13, genotypes, cald1a−/−, cald1b−/−), B) control vs cald1a mutants (n = 24, genotypes cald1a−/− and cald1a−/−, cald1b+/−), C) control vs cald1b mutants (n = 38, genotypes cald1b−/− and cald1b−/−,cald1a+/−), D) Stimulation of wt (n = 5) or cald1a,cald1b mutants (n = 5) with pentylene tetrazolium (PTZ). In A-C the same control data are shown as reference.
