Zearfoss N, Chan A, Wu C, Kloc M, Etkin L
Dev Biol
. 2004 Feb;
267(1):60-71.
PMID: 14975717
We have identified the RNA-binding protein Hermes in a screen for vegetally localized RNAs in Xenopus oocytes. The RNA localizes to the vegetal cortex through both the message transport organizer...

Development
. 2001 Sep;
128(17):3381-93.
PMID: 11546754
Tumorhead (TH) is a novel maternal gene product from Xenopus laevis containing several basic domains and a weak coiled-coil. Overexpression of wild-type TH resulted in increased proliferation of neural plate...

Kloc M, Bilinski S, Chan A, Etkin L
Differentiation
. 2001 Jun;
67(3):80-3.
PMID: 11428130
Germ cells of various animals contain a determinant that is called the germ plasm. In amphibians such as Xenopus laevis, the germ plasm is composed of mitochondria and electron dense...

Torok M, Etkin L
Differentiation
. 2001 Jun;
67(3):63-71.
PMID: 11428128
The B-box gene family represents a large number of genes involved in functions such as axial patterning, growth control, differentiation, and transcriptional regulation. These genes possess several conserved motifs that...

Chan A, Etkin L
Curr Top Dev Biol
. 2001 Mar;
51:1-67.
PMID: 11236711
Xenopus has been widely used to study early embryogenesis because the embryos allow for efficient functional assays of gene products by the overexpression of RNA. The first asymmetry of the...

Int Rev Cytol
. 2000 Dec;
203:63-91.
PMID: 11131528
In many organisms the proper development of the embryo depends on the asymmetrical distribution of maternal RNAs and proteins in the egg. Although the Xenopus oocyte is radially symmetrical it...

Mech Dev
. 2000 Dec;
100(1):137-40.
PMID: 11118900
Vegetally localized RNAs in Xenopus oocytes have been implicated in the establishment of the primary germ layers and the formation and development of the primordial germ cells. fatvg mRNA is...

J Cell Sci
. 2000 Jun;
113 ( Pt 13):2497-505.
PMID: 10852828
The regulation of the cell cycle during early development is an important and complex biological process. We have cloned a cDNA, XCS-1, that may play an important role in regulating...

Kloc M, Bilinski S, Etkin L
Dev Biol
. 2000 Jan;
217(2):221-9.
PMID: 10625548
The germ cell lineage is specified by the germ plasm, which in Xenopus laevis contains putative determinants called germinal granules. The pathway through which these structures form and how their...

Development
. 1999 Oct;
126(22):4943-53.
PMID: 10529413
Vegetally localized transcripts have been implicated in a number of important biological functions, including cell fate determination and embryonic patterning. We have isolated a cDNA, fatvg, which encodes a localized...
