Histone H3K79 methyltransferase Dot1L is directly activated by thyroid hormone receptor during Xenopus metamorphosis

open access: yesCell & Bioscience, 2012
Background Thyroid hormone (T3) is important for adult organ function and vertebrate development. Amphibian metamorphosis is totally dependent on T3 and offers a unique opportunity to study how T3 controls postembryonic development in vertebrates ...

Cell cycle dynamics of an M-phase-specific cytoplasmic factor in Xenopus laevis oocytes and eggs

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 1984
We have examined the regulation of maturation-promoting factor (MPF) activity in the mitotic and meiotic cell cycles of Xenopus laevis eggs and oocytes.

Divergent roles of the Wnt/PCP Formin Daam1 in renal ciliogenesis.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Kidneys are composed of numerous ciliated epithelial tubules called nephrons. Each nephron functions to reabsorb nutrients and concentrate waste products into urine.

How Does the Xenopus laevis Embryonic Cell Cycle Avoid Spatial Chaos?

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
Theoretical studies have shown that a deterministic biochemical oscillator can become chaotic when operating over a sufficiently large volume and have suggested that the Xenopus laevis cell cycle oscillator operates close to such a chaotic regime.

Limb Regeneration in Xenopus laevis Froglet

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2006
Limb regeneration in amphibians is a representative process of epimorphosis. This type of organ regeneration, in which a mass of undifferentiated cells referred to as the “blastema” proliferate to restore the lost part of the amputated organ, is distinct
