Pax6 induces ectopic eyes in a vertebrate.
We report here that misexpression of the transcription factor Pax6 in the vertebrate Xenopus laevis leads to the formation of differentiated ectopic eyes. Multiple molecular markers indicated the presence of mature lens fiber cells, ganglion cells, Müller cells, photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelial cells in a spatial arrangement similar to that of endogenous eyes. Lineage tracing exper...
متن کاملThe allometry and scaling of the size of vertebrate eyes
We compiled data from the literature and colleagues to examine the relationship between eye axial length and body weight for vertebrates as well as birds, mammals, reptiles, and fishes independently. After fitting the data to logarithmic and semi-logarithmic models, we found that axial length of vertebrate eyes does obey a conventional logarithmic relationship with body weight rather than a sem...
متن کاملEYA4, a novel vertebrate gene related to Drosophila eyes absent.
We have isolated a family of four vertebrate genes homologous to eyes absent (eya), a key regulator of ocular development in Drosophila. Here we present the detailed characterization of the EYA4 gene in human and mouse. EYA4 encodes a 640 amino acid protein containing a highly conserved C-terminal domain of 271 amino acids which in Drosophila eya is known to mediate developmentally important pr...
متن کاملA standard nomenclature for the axes and planes of vertebrate eyes
A standard nomenclature for the axes and planes of vertebrate eyes There is a general problem in naming the axes and planes of vertebrate eyes. The problem arises from the fact that both the position of the head relative to the body and the position of eyes relative to the head show great variability in vertebrates. Thus the standard vertebrate axes (dorso-ventral, antero-posterior, and left–ri...
متن کاملGrasping with the eyes.
When observing someone else acting on an object, people implement goal-specific eye movement programs that are driven by their own motor representation of the observed action. Usually, however, we observe people acting in contexts where more objects, different in shape and size, are present. Is our brain able to select the intended target even when there are different objects in the visual scen...
