Parental origin-specific developmental defects in mice with uniparental disomy for chromosome 12
(2000)Genetic analysis has shown that the distal portion of mouse chromosome 12 is imprinted

Retinoid X receptor-γ gene expression is developmentally regulated in the embryonic rodent peripheral nervous system
(1998)The retinoid X receptor-γ (RXRγ) is a transcription factor that belongs to the thyroid hormone/retinoid family of nuclear receptors. Previous studies have shown that RXRγ is expressed in the developing peripheral nervous ...

Roles for genomic imprinting and the zygotic genome in placental development
(2001)The placenta contains several types of fetomaternal interfaces where zygote-derived cells interact with maternal cells or maternal blood for the promotion of fetal growth and viability. The genetic factors regulating the ...

Samba, a Xenopus hnRNP expressed in neural and neural crest tissues
(2009)RNA binding proteins regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level and play important roles in embryonic development. Here, we report the cloning and expression of Samba, a Xenopus hnRNP that is maternally ...

A serum-free and defined medium for the culture of mammalian postimplantation embryos
(2015)Whole embryo culture (WEC) of postimplantation rodent embryos is widely used for the study of mammalian embryogenesis and developmental toxicity testing. Its major advantage is that it allows direct access to embryos for ...

Spatially and temporally regulated α6 integrin cleavage during Xenopus laevis development
(2008)The α6 integrin is essential for early nervous system development in Xenopus laevis. We have previously reported a uPA cleaved form of integrin α6 (α6p), in invasive human prostate cancer tissue, whose presence correlates ...

Split-Inteins for Simultaneous, site-specific conjugation of Quantum Dots to multiple protein targets In vivo
(2011)Background: Proteins labelled with Quantum Dots (QDs) can be imaged over long periods of time with ultrahigh spatial and temporal resolution, yielding important information on the spatiotemporal dynamics of proteins within ...

Telomeres Acquire Embryonic Stem Cell Characteristics in Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
(2009)Telomere shortening is associated with organismal aging. iPS cells have been recently derived from old patients

Xenopus laevis nucleotide binding protein 1 (xNubp1) is important for convergent extension movements and controls ciliogenesis via regulation of the actin cytoskeleton
(2013)Nucleotide binding protein 1 (Nubp1) is a highly conserved phosphate loop (P-loop) ATPase involved in diverse processes including iron-sulfur protein assembly, centrosome duplication and lung development. Here, we report ...
