Embryonic expression and functional analysis of a Xenopus activin receptor.

Developmental dynamics : an official publication of the American Association of Anatomists - 1 May 1992

Hemmati-Brivanlou A, Wright D A, Melton D A

Abstract excerpt

We report the isolation and characterization of a Xenopus activin receptor (XAR1). The amino acid sequence of this protein shows extensive homology with a murine activin receptor. The mRNA is expressed maternally and is ubiquitously distributed during the early stages of embryogenesis. Consistent with a possible role in mesoderm induction and patterning, interference with the normal expression of the receptor by...
