Functional conservation of erythropoietin signaling in zebrafish.
Erythropoietin (Epo) and its cognate receptor (EpoR) are required for maintaining adequate levels of circulating erythrocytes during embryogenesis and adulthood. Here, we report the functional characterization of the zebrafish epo and epor genes. The expression of epo and epor was evaluated by quantitative reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and whole-mount in situ hybridiz...
متن کاملExpression 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...
متن کاملStructural and functional characterizations of an Activin type II receptor orthologue from the pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas.
Members of the Transforming Growth factor beta (TGF-beta) superfamily of cell signalling polypeptides are known to play important roles in cell proliferation and differentiation during development and in various physiological processes of most animal clades. Recent findings in the mollusc Crassostrea gigas demonstrate the occurrence of a diversity of TGF-beta signalling components including var...
متن کاملTemporal expression and T3 induction of thyroid hormone receptors alpha1 and beta1 during early embryonic and larval development in zebrafish, Danio rerio.
The effects of thyroid hormones on metabolism and development are mediated by thyroid hormone receptors (TRs). We report the cloning and characterization of a TR beta1 cDNA from zebrafish. Southern blot analysis revealed that there is a single genomic locus for the TR beta gene, while the TR alpha gene potentially has two loci. Multiple TR alpha and TR beta transcripts were detected in adult ti...
متن کاملMolecular Characterization of a Three-disulfide Bridges Beta-like Neurotoxin from Androctonus crassicauda Scorpion Venom
Scorpion venom is the richest source of peptide toxins with high levels of specific interactions with different ion-channel membrane proteins. The present study involved the amplification and sequencing of a 310-bp cDNA fragment encoding a beta-like neurotoxin active on sodium ion-channel from the venom glands of scorpion Androctonus crassicauda belonging to the Buthidae family using r...
