Joel Richter and his colleagues have made some very interesting observations by studying Xenopus oocyte and embryonic development. They found that several mRNAs that were polyadenylated in the ...

CALHM1 and its C. elegans homolog, CLHM-1, exhibit similar biophysical properties when expressed in Xenopus oocytes and functional conservation when expressed in C. elegans. We are utilizing the ...

it was hypothesized that two kinds of protein kinases, a serine/threonine kinase and a tyrosine kinase, might function as direct upstream activators for MAP kinases. In this paper, however, we ...
