The Jonah genes: a new multigene family in Drosophila melanogaster.

abstract：:Three different null alleles of the myogenic bHLH gene MRF4/herculin/Myf-6 were created recently. The three alleles were similar in design but were surprisingly different in the intensity of their phenotypes, which ranged from complete viability of homozygotes to complete lethality. One possible explanation for these ...

abstract：:Two main processes are involved in driving ventral mesendoderm internalization in the Xenopus gastrula. First, vegetal rotation, an active movement of the vegetal cell mass, initiates gastrulation by rolling the peripheral blastocoel floor against the blastocoel roof. In this way, the leading edge of the internalized ...
