The S362A mutation block ROMK2 (Kir1.1b) endocytosis in Xenopus laevis oocyte membrane .

Abstract The S362A mutation block ROMK2 (Kir1.1b) endocytosis in Xenopus laevis oocyte membrane . Saeed Hajihashemi1 , 1-Assistant professor, PhD in Physiology, Department of Physiology, School of Medical science, Arak University of Medical Sciences. Introduction: ROMK channel is localized on the apical membrane of the nephron. Recent studies suggest that endocytosis of ROMK chan...

Stockpiling of DNA polymerases during oogenesis and embryogenesis in the frog, Xenopus laevis.

The amounts of the various forms of DNA polymerase (alpha 1, alpha 2, beta, and gamma) have been determined in oocytes, eggs, and embryos of the frog, Xenopus laevis. During oogenesis the relative proportions and absolute levels of all forms changed dramatically. In stage I (early) oocytes, DNA polymerase-gamma, the "mitochondrial" polymerase, was the predominant form. During oocyte growth, DNA...

The Timing of Meiosis and Dna Synthesis during Early Oogenesis in the Toad, Xenopus Laevis

Recently metamorphosed female Xenopus laevis toads were injected with tritiated thymidine. Animals were kept at 20 degrees C and were sacrificed 1-23 days after isotope injection. Radio-autographs of squash preparations of the ovaries were made. The progress of labeled germ cell nuclei was followed to obtain information on the time course of early meiosis and extra-chromosomal DNA synthesis. Pr...

Expression of hsp90 Alpha and hsp90 Beta during Xenopus laevis Embryonic Development

Background: Members of the eukaryotic Hsp90 family function as important molecular chaperones in the assembly, folding and activation of cellular signaling in development. Two hsp90 genes, hsp90 alpha and hsp90 beta, have been identified in fish and homeothermic vertebrates but not in poikilothermic vertebrates. In the present study, the expression of hsp90 alpha and hsp90 beta genes in Xenopus...
