High-resolution in vivo imaging of gene expression is not possible in opaque animals by
existing techniques. Here we present a new approach for obtaining such images by magnetic …

Although cell movements are vital for establishing the normal architecture of embryos, it is
unclear how these movements are regulated during development in vertebrates. Inhibition of …

… Sarras for sharing unpublished data, the Mishima Hydra lab for providing reg-16 mutants,
CN David and U. Technau for critical comments on the manuscript, and K. Wehner and P. …

Dishevelled (Dsh) induces a secondary axis and can translocate to the membrane when
activated by Frizzleds; however, dominant-negative approaches have not supported a role for …

In Wnt‐stimulated cells, β‐catenin becomes stabilized in the cytoplasm, enters the nucleus
and interacts with HMG box transcription factors of the lymphoid‐enhancing factor‐1 (LEF‐1)/…

… (U. Rothbächer, unpublished data). The scRNA-seq approach is compatible with fixed cells,
thus minimising detrimental effects on the cell state. Such single-cell techniques have been …

We describe the isolation of the Xenopus homeobox gene twin (Xtwn), which was identified
in an expression cloning screen for molecules with dorsalizing activities. Injection of …

Mesoderm induction assays in Xenopus have implicated growth factors such as activin, Vg1,
Xwnt-8, and noggin as important in directing the formation of dorsal mesoderm (Spemann's …

The cell surface glycoprotein MUC18 was originally identified as a progression associated
antigen in melanoma. MUC18 is expressed most strongly on metastatic lesions and …

The vertebrate peripheral nervous system (PNS) originates from neural crest and placodes.
While its developmental origin is the object of intense studies, little is known concerning its …
