Abstract excerpt
The msx family of genes are important during development, and implicated in the development of various craniofacial structures. Here the frog, Xenopus laevis, was used to perform gain-of-function experiments to obtain further insight into the role of the msx2 gene. mRNAs of wild-type and mutated forms of the msx2 gene were injected into developing Xenopus embryos. Phenotypic changes in these embryos were noted,...
