Exogenous wild-type fam20b expression does not alter skeletal phenotypes of wild types or xylt1b1128 mutants, but can rescue cartilage of fam20bb1125 mutants with a single induction at 55 hpf. A–E, dissected, flat-mounted pharyngeal skeletons of Alcian blue/Alizarin red-stained (A,B) and Alcian blue-stained (C–E) larvae. Injection of larvae with wild-type fam20b under control of the beta-actin2 promoter did not alter skeletal phenotypes of wild types (A) or xylt1b1128 mutants (B). Injection of larvae with wild-type fam20b under control of the hsp70l promoter rescued cartilage matrix production in fam20bb1125 mutants when heat shocked at 55 hpf (E), compared to injected fam20bb1125 embryos that did not undergo heat shock (D), while heat shock had no effect on uninjected control larvae (C). Abbreviations: HS = heat shock; UIC = uninjected control.
