Expression of Xenopus tropicalis HNF6/Onecut-1
Onecut genes belong to a family of transcription factors that are known to be important in embryonic development. In the present study, we analyzed the pattern of expression of Onecut-1/HNF6 in Xenopus tropicalis using RT-PCR and whole mount in situ hybridization.

Background The western African clawed frog Xenopus tropicalis is an anuran amphibian species now used as model in vertebrate comparative genomics. It provides the same advantages as Xenopus laevis but is diploid and has a smaller genome of 1.7 Gbp ...

SUBFUNCTIONALIZATION OF ENDONUCLEASE G ISOZYMES IN XENOPUS TROPICALIS [PDF]
Endonuclease G (EndoG) is known to be involved in apoptotic degradation of nuclear DNA. It has also been proposed to carry out mRNA degradation in the cytoplasm of apoptotic cells.

Functional studies of cytokines produced by Xenopus Lymphocytes following T cell mitogen stimulation [PDF]
In vitro culture conditions for the production and assay of T cell mitogen - induced culture supernatants have been investigated in an amphibian model system, the clawed toad, Xenopus.

Embryonic development produces different cell types in response to a small number of inductive signals. Here, the authors characterise how maternal factors modify chromatin to specify initial competence in Xenopus tropicalis, finding that the pioneering ...

TALENs and CRISPR/Cas9 fuel genetically engineered clinically relevant Xenopus tropicalis tumor models [PDF]
The targeted nuclease revolution (TALENs, CRISPR/Cas9) now allows Xenopus researchers to rapidly generate custom on-demand genetic knockout models. These novel methods to perform reverse genetics are unprecedented and are fueling a wide array of human ...

Genetic screens for mutations affecting development of Xenopus tropicalis.
We present here the results of forward and reverse genetic screens for chemically-induced mutations in Xenopus tropicalis. In our forward genetic screen, we have uncovered 77 candidate phenotypes in diverse organogenesis and differentiation processes ...

Candidate enhancer and transcription dynamics in early Xenopus tropicalis development [PDF]
A previous study from the Gilchrist lab measured transcription in the Xenopus tropicalis embryo for the first 66 hours of development at a high temporal resolution. This data showed that early transcription in Xenopus tropicalis is a very dynamic process,

Comparison of induction during development between Xenopus tropicalis and Xenopus laevis
Several in vitro systems exist for the induction of animal caps using growth factors such as activin. In this paper, we compared the competence of activin-treated animal cap cells dissected from the late blastulae of Xenopus tropicalis and Xenopus laevis.
