Transcriptional regulation at the neural plate borderThomas D Sargent
Laboratory of Molecular Genetics, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, USA
Adv Exp Med Biol 589:32-44. 2006
Induction of neural crest in Xenopus by transcription factor AP2alphaTing Luo
Laboratory of Molecular Genetics, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 100:532-7. 2003..We propose a model in which AP2alpha expression, along with inactivation of NC inhibitory factors such as Dlx3, establish a feedback loop comprising AP2alpha, Sox9, and Slug, leading to and maintaining NC specification...
Inca: a novel p21-activated kinase-associated protein required for cranial neural crest developmentTing Luo
Laboratory of Molecular Genetics, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA
Development 134:1279-89. 2007..These results suggest that Inca and PAK5 cooperate in restructuring cytoskeletal organization and in the regulation of cell adhesion in the early embryo and in NC cells during craniofacial development...
Regulatory targets for transcription factor AP2 in Xenopus embryosTing Luo
Laboratory of Molecular Genetics, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD 20892-2790, USA
Dev Growth Differ 47:403-13. 2005..These results provide further support for the importance of TFAP2alpha in ectoderm development, and also highlight the molecular linkage between the epidermis and neural crest in the Xenopus embryo...
Transcription factor AP-2 is an essential and direct regulator of epidermal development in XenopusTing Luo
Laboratory of Molecular Genetics, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA
Dev Biol 245:136-44. 2002..These treatments also result in gastrulation failure. Thus, AP-2 is a critical regulator of ectodermal determination that is required for normal epidermal development and morphogenesis in the frog embryo...
Myosin-X is required for cranial neural crest cell migration in Xenopus laevisYoo seok Hwang
Laboratory of Molecular Genetics, NICHD, NIH, Bethesda, Maryland 20892, USA
Dev Dyn 238:2522-9. 2009..These data support the conclusion that MyoX has an essential function in CNC migration in the vertebrate embryo...
Msx1 and Msx2 have shared essential functions in neural crest but may be dispensable in epidermis and axis formation in XenopusDeepak Khadka
Laboratory of Molecular Genetics, National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda MD 20892, USA
Int J Dev Biol 50:499-502. 2006..If Msx genes have important functions in epidermis or axial mesoderm induction, these functions must be shared with other regulatory proteins...
PCNS: a novel protocadherin required for cranial neural crest migration and somite morphogenesis in XenopusJanaki Rangarajan
Laboratory of Molecular Genetics, NICHD, NIH, Bethesda, MD 20892, USA
Dev Biol 295:206-18. 2006..Somites and axial muscles also failed to undergo normal morphogenesis in these embryos. Thus, PCNS has essential functions in these two important developmental processes in Xenopus...
AP-2alpha selectively regulates fragile X mental retardation-1 gene transcription during embryonic developmentJae H Lim
Department of Neuroscience, Brown University, Providence, RI 02912, USA
Hum Mol Genet 14:2027-34. 2005..We conclude that AP-2alpha associates with the Fmr1 promoter in vivo and selectively regulates Fmr1 transcription during embryonic development...
Specification of the otic placode depends on Sox9 function in XenopusNatasha Saint-Germain
Department of Animal Biology, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, 3800 Spruce Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA
Development 131:1755-63. 2004..We propose that Sox9 is one of the key regulators of inner ear specification in Xenopus...
Developmental expression of Xenopus fragile X mental retardation-1 geneJae H Lim
Department of Neuroscience, Brown University, Providence, RI 02912, USA
Int J Dev Biol 49:981-4. 2005..Further, our findings indicate that Xenopus will serve as an excellent model to study the developmental basis of this disease...
