Disruption of mesoderm and axis formation in fish by ectopic expression of activin variants: the role of maternal activin.

Genes & development - 15 Jun 1994

Wittbrodt J, Rosa F M

Abstract excerpt

Formation of mesoderm in Xenopus embryos is the result of an induction event in which peptides such as FGF or activins have been implicated. It was recently demonstrated, by the ectopic expression of a truncated activin receptor, that activin receptor signaling pathways are involved in the proces...
