From: A zebrafish screen for craniofacial mutants identifies wdr68 as a highly conserved gene required for endothelin-1 expression

Figure 6

Transformation of 2nd arch identity transforms 2nd arch wdr68 sensitivity. A, C) Lateral views at 4dpf. B, D) Ventral views at 4dpf. A, B) Wild type animal injected with mozMO transforms 2nd arch cartilage elements into mirror image duplicates of 1st arch cartilages. C, D) Injecting dys animals with mozMO reveals similar cartilage losses as in maternal wdr68 knockdowns shown in (Fig. 4E, F) but with further reduction of HM region presumably through mirror image duplication of the missing 1st arch cartilages.
