Abstract excerpt
Germline LKB1/STK11 mutations are associated with the cancer-prone Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS) in humans, and nullizygosity provokes a poorly understood constellation of developmental perturbations in the mid-gestational mouse. To gain a better understanding of the processes regulated by LKB1, we have exploited the experimental merits of the developing Xenopus embryo. Here, specific inhibition of XEEK1, the...
