Analysis of photoreceptor outer segment morphogenesis in zebrafish ift57, ift88 and ift172 intraflagellar transport mutants

Vertebrate photoreceptors are polarized cells that consist of a specialized sensory structure termed the outer segment required for phototransduction and an inner segment that contains the cellular organelles. Proteins synthesized in the inner segment are transported to the outer segment via a conne...
