Fig. 5From: Rab32 and Rab38 genes in chordate pigmentation: an evolutionary perspective Rab32a expression pattern during zebrafish embryogenesis. Rab32a has been observed in the presumptive posterior axial mesoderm (arrowhead) at 6 hpf (a) and in the developing notochord (white arrow) and Kupffer’s vesicle (arrowhead) at 8 hpf (b). At 24 hpf, it is present in RPE (white arrowhead), notochord and migrating neural crest cells (black arrows) (c-f). At 48 hpf the signal disappears in neural crest cells, but persists in RPE and notochord (white arrows) (g-h) and appears in the swim bladder (g, white asterisk). The expression in the swim bladder persists at 72 hpf larvae (i-j, white asterisk)Back to article page
