Partial inhibition of Hsp90

The images illustrate the phenotypic spectrum, uncovered in one zebrafish strain, following partial inhibition of Hsp90. The frequency and range of severity observed after inbreeding suggests involvement of multiple genes and thresholds. The microphthalmia and anophthalmia are reminiscent of similar human malformations, often unilateral and without clear inheritance patterns (see see Yeyati et al., e43).
