Mechanisms of tail resorption during anuran metamorphosis

Biomolecular Concepts, 2017
Amphibian metamorphosis has historically attracted a good deal of scientific attention owing to its dramatic nature and easy observability. However, the genetic mechanisms of amphibian metamorphosis have not been thoroughly examined using modern ...

Temporal Relationship of Ocular and Tail Segmental Movements Underlying Locomotor-Induced Gaze Stabilization During Undulatory Swimming in Larval Xenopus

Frontiers in Neural Circuits, 2018
In larval xenopus, locomotor-induced oculomotor behavior produces gaze-stabilizing eye movements to counteract the disruptive effects of tail undulation during swimming.

Developmental exposure to the pesticide malathion enhances expression of Prdm12, a regulator of nociceptor development, in Xenopus laevis

microPublication Biology, 2023
The transcription factor Prdm12 exerts important influences on the development of nociceptors, peripheral touch and pain-sensing neurons, and has been implicated in human pain sensation disorders.

The XenCart Protocol: A method for Alcian blue labeling and quantitative analysis of craniofacial cartilage in Xenopus. [PDF]

J Anat
The XenCart Protocol provides a reproducible way to visualize and quantify how the developing craniofacial skeleton responds to experimental perturbation. Embryos are exposed to defined conditions, craniofacial cartilage is stained with Alcian blue, imaged, and analyzed morphometrically.

Expression and cilia associated localization of Histone deacetylases 6 in Xenopus

microPublication Biology, 2023
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are key posttranslational modulators of the proteome. We show that expression of histone deacetylase 6 (hdac6) is dynamic and appears in a tissue specific manner throughout embryonic development of the frog Xenopus laevis ...

Developing immortal cell lines from Xenopus embryos, four novel cell lines derived from Xenopus tropicalis

Open Biology, 2022
The diploid anuran Xenopus tropicalis has emerged as a key research model in cell and developmental biology. To enhance the usefulness of this species, we developed methods for generating immortal cell lines from Nigerian strain (NXR_1018, RRID ...

Transposon transgenesis in Xenopus [PDF]

Methods, 2010
Transposon-mediated integration strategies in Xenopus offer simple and robust methods for the generation of germline transgenic animals. Co-injection of fertilized one-cell embryos with plasmid DNA harboring a transposon transgene and synthetic mRNA encoding the cognate transposase enzyme results in mosaic integration of the transposon at early ...

Localisation of RNAs into the germ plasm of vitellogenic xenopus oocytes [PDF]

, 2013
We have studied the localisation of mRNAs in full-grown Xenopus laevis oocytes by injecting fluorescent RNAs, followed by confocal microscopy of the oocyte cortex.

Identification of a Candidate CD5 Homologue in the Amphibian Xenopus laevis [PDF]

, 1995
We identified a novel T cell Ag in the South African clawed toad (Xenopus laevis) by a mAb designated 2B1. This Ag is present in relatively high levels on most thymocytes, approximately 65% of splenocytes, 55% of PBL, and 65% of intestinal lymphocytes ...

Synergistic perspectives—How single‐molecule biophysics complement biochemical understanding

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this review, we discuss how ensemble biochemistry and single‐molecule approaches are complementary, outline commonly used single‐molecule techniques, and illustrate their relevance through two representative case studies: chromatin organization by SMC complexes and pathway choice during DNA double‐strand break repair.
