Decoding development in Xenopus tropicalis [PDF]

genesis, 2007
AbstractXenopus tropicalis is rapidly being adopted as a model organism for developmental biology research and has enormous potential for increasing our understanding of how embryonic development is controlled. In recent years there has been a well‐organized initiative within the Xenopus community, funded largely through the support of the National ...

A genetic map of Xenopus tropicalis

Developmental Biology, 2011
We present a genetic map for Xenopus tropicalis, consisting of 2886 Simple Sequence Length Polymorphism (SSLP) markers. Using a bioinformatics-based strategy, we identified unique SSLPs within the X. tropicalis genome. Scaffolds from X. tropicalis genome assembly 2.0 (JGI) were scanned for Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs); unique SSRs were then tested ...

Generation and Care of Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis Embryos [PDF]

, 2018
Robust and efficient protocols for fertilization and early embryo care of Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis are essential for experimental success, as well as maintenance and propagation of precious animal stocks. The rapid growth of the National Xenopus Resource has required effective implementation and optimization of these protocols.

Chromatin immunoprecipitation and deep sequencing in Xenopus tropicalis and Xenopus laevis [PDF]

Methods, 2014
Chromatin immunoprecipitation and deep sequencing (ChIP-SEQ) represents a powerful tool for identifying the genomic targets of transcription factors, chromatin remodeling factors, and histone modifications. The frogs Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis have historically been outstanding model systems for embryology and cell biology, with emerging ...

Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) promotes wound re-epithelialisation in frog and human skin [PDF]

, 2013
There remains a critical need for new therapeutics that promote wound healing in patients suffering from chronic skin wounds. This is, in part, due to a shortage of simple, physiologically and clinically relevant test systems for investigating candidate ...

Xenopus Hybrids Provide Insight Into Cell and Organism Size Control

Frontiers in Physiology, 2018
Determining how size is controlled is a fundamental question in biology that is poorly understood at the organismal, cellular, and subcellular levels. The Xenopus species, X. laevis and X. tropicalis differ in size at all three of these levels.

Picroscope: low-cost system for simultaneous longitudinal biological imaging

Communications Biology, 2021
Ly et al. report a multi-well imaging system (the Picroscope) that can perform longitudinal bright-field z-stack imaging for 24 wells simultaneously. They demonstrate its capability by imaging zebrafish embryos, planaria worms, development of Xenopus ...

Identification of REST targets in the Xenopus tropicalis genome [PDF]

BMC Genomics, 2015
A major role of REST (repressor element-1 silencing transcription factor) is to inhibit the expression of neuronal genes in neural stem cells and non-neuronal cells by binding to a 21 bp consensus sequence and recruiting epigenetic and regulatory cofactors to gene regulatory regions.
