1.
Ohlstein B, Lavoie C, Vef O, Gateff E, McKearin D
Genetics . 2000 Aug; 155(4):1809-19. PMID: 10924476
Selection of asymmetric cell fates can involve both intrinsic and extrinsic factors. Previously we have identified the bag-of-marbles (bam) gene as an intrinsic factor for cystoblast fate in Drosophila germline...

Lavoie C, Ohlstein B, McKearin D
Dev Biol . 1999 Aug; 212(2):405-13. PMID: 10433830
Division of a female Drosophila stem cell produces a daughter stem cell and a cystoblast. The cystoblast produces a syncytial cluster of 16 cells by precisely four mitotic divisions and...

Clark K, McKearin D
Development . 1996 Mar; 122(3):937-50. PMID: 8631271
The differentiation of Drosophila germ cells is a useful model for studying mechanisms of cell specification. We report the identification of a gene, stonewall, that is required for germ cell...

Christerson L, McKearin D
Genes Dev . 1994 Mar; 8(5):614-28. PMID: 7926753
We describe mutations in the orb gene, identified previously as an ovarian-specific member of a large family of RNA-binding proteins. Strong orb alleles arrest oogenesis prior to egg chamber formation,...

McKearin D, Spradling A
Genes Dev . 1990 Dec; 4(12B):2242-51. PMID: 2279698
In Drosophila, male and female gametes begin development when a stem cell divides to produce a cyst precursor. Subsequently, four special divisions give rise to a cluster of 16 interconnected...

Shapiro D, Barton M, McKearin D, Chang T, Lew D, Blume J, et al.
Recent Prog Horm Res . 1989 Jan; 45:29-58; discussion 58-64. PMID: 2682843
No abstract available.

McKearin D, Shapiro D
J Biol Chem . 1988 Mar; 263(7):3261-5. PMID: 3343247
Administration of estradiol-17 beta to male Xenopus laevis induces the hepatic mRNA coding for the serum retinol binding protein (RBP) approximately 10-fold, both in vivo and in primary liver cultures....

McKearin D, Barton M, Keller M, Shapiro D
J Biol Chem . 1987 Apr; 262(11):4939-42. PMID: 3558378
We have isolated and sequenced a full-length cDNA cloned tentatively identified as encoding Xenopus laevis serum retinol-binding protein (RBP) mRNA. The derived amino acid sequence of the Xenopus protein is...
