1. The zebrafish ortholog of human JunB is expressed in the zebrafish heart.
The zebrafish ortholog of human JunB is expressed in the zebrafish heart. (A) Amino acid sequence alignment of zebrafish (dr), human (hs) and mouse (mm) JunB, demonstrating the cross-species homology. Black boxes indicate amino acid identity; gray boxes indicate amino acids with similar chemical properties. (B-E) Antisense in situ hybridization demonstrates abundant junb-mRNA expression, including in heart and skeletal muscle (skm). Shown are lateral views and magnifications of wild-type (wt) embryos at 48 hpf (B,C) and 72 hpf (D,E).
