Abstract excerpt
Xenopus nuclear factor 7 (xnf7) is a maternal gene product that functi ons in dorsal/ventral patterning of the embryo. The xnf7 protein is stored in the oocyte nucleus germinal vesicle in a hypophosphorylated state. At oocyte maturation, xnf7 is hyperphosphorylated and released into the cytoplasm, where it is anchored until the midblastula stage, where it is dephosphorylated and enters the nucleus. We...
