Xenopus laevis ribosomal protein S1a cDNA sequence.
In Xenopus laevis the coordinated synthesis of the over 80 ribosomal proteins (r-proteins) is attained by both post-transcriptional and translational level regulation (1, 2). Also several r-protein genes analyzed present structural similarities probably involved in the common regulatory mechanisms. Our understanding, however, of the structure and expression of these genes is based on the analys...
متن کاملAntiporter in Xenopus Laevis Oocytes
The amiloride-sensitive Na + /H + antiporter in defolliculated oocytes of Xenopus laevis was characterized by measurements of H Na + influx and apparent H + efflux. Uptake of ^Na"" was linear over a 90-min incubation period and was inhibited approximately 80% with 5xlO~moll~ amiloride. Amiloride-sensitive sodium uptake was reduced following collagenase treatment or oocyte aging. Ko 5 for amilor...
متن کاملMicroinjection of Xenopus Laevis Oocytes
Microinjection of Xenopus laevis oocytes followed by thin-sectioning electron microscopy (EM) is an excellent system for studying nucleocytoplasmic transport. Because of its large nucleus and high density of nuclear pore complexes (NPCs), nuclear transport can be easily visualized in the Xenopus oocyte. Much insight into the mechanisms of nuclear import and export has been gained through use of...
متن کاملHeterologous expression of C. elegans ion channels in Xenopus oocytes.
Physiological methods entered the world of C. elegans, a model system used for many years to study development and a plethora of biological processes mainly employing genetic, molecular and anatomical techniques. One of the methods introduced by physiologists is the use of Xenopus oocytes for expression of C. elegans ion channels. Oocytes of the South African frog Xenopus laevis are used widely...
متن کاملMicrotubules in immature oocytes of Xenopus laevis.
Previous work indicated that immature oocytes of Xenopus were incapable of assembling microtubules but that competence was achieved during maturation. We report here that small numbers of microtubules do exist in immature oocytes. Consistent with this finding, ultrastructural observations indicate that brain microtubules injected into immature oocytes persist in large numbers for at least 30 mi...
