Xenopus
frog
Shading indicates aminoacid identity compared with Sna
ones that are the same
in vivo
Done with or within a living organism.
transactivation
increased rate of gene expression triggered by biological processes or by artificial means.
mesenchyme
loosely organized, mainly mesodermal embryonic tissue which develops into connective and skeletal tissues, including blood and lymph.
in situ hybridisation
laboratory technique where a single-stranded DNA or RNA sequence called a probe is allowed to form complementary base pairs with DNA or RNA present in a tissue or chromosome sample.
tran-siently expressed
the temporary expression of genes that are expressed for a short time after nucleic acid.
Xenopus
clawed frogs
induction
process by which the presence of one tissue influences the development of others.
delamination
formation and separation of laminae or layers; one of the methods by which the various blastodermic layers of the ovum are differentiated.
ectoplacental cone
the first sign of placental development; cellular growth that protrudes into the uterine lumen in the mesometrial region.
mesoderm
Germ layer that arises during gastrulation; the middle layer.
Xenopus
Aquatic Frog
zinc-finger
A zinc finger is a small protein structural motif that's characterized by the coordination of one or more zinc ions in order to stabilize the fold. It is a common DNA binding domain found in many transcription factors.
Drosophila
Fruit fly
Cloning and developmental expression of Sna, a murine homologue of the Drosophila snail gene
