Abstract excerpt
We are investigating the structure and regulation of alpha-tubulin genes expressed in amphibian oocytes. We have characterised here a gene, X alpha T207, that produces a major alpha-tubulin mRNA of Xenopus laevis ovary. X alpha T207 mRNA was not detected in other frog tissues and its production may therefore be a key identifying feature of ovarian differentiation. In comparison to the tubulin isotypes so far...
