Journal ArticleDOI

Armadillo Coactivates Transcription Driven by the Product of the Drosophila Segment Polarity Gene dTCF

TL;DR: A maternally expressed Drosophila TCF family member is cloned, dTCF, which mediates Wingless signaling as a bipartite transcription factor and binds a canonical TCF DNA motif and interacts with the beta-catenin homolog Armadillo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cross regulation of decapentaplegic and Ultrabithorax transcription in the embryonic visceral mesoderm of Drosophila

TL;DR: It is concluded that dpp both responds to and regulates Ubx in ps7 of the visceral mesoderm and that Ubx autoregulation within this tissue may be indirect as it requires more components than have previously been thought.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ultrabithorax protein is necessary but not sufficient for full activation of decapentaplegic expression in the visceral mesoderm.

TL;DR: The regulation of decapentaplegic (dpp), a transforming growth factor (TGF)‐beta superfamily member, is analyzed and it is found that the Ultrabithorax (Ubx) HOM protein directly activates dpp expression in parasegment 7 (PS7) of the embryonic visceral mesoderm.
Journal ArticleDOI

A sea urchin gene encodes a polypeptide homologous to epidermal growth factor

TL;DR: RNA gel blot hybridization showed a unique temporal pattern of expression of this gene during embryogenesis and transcript enrichment in the embryonic ectoderm, suggesting that this member of the epidermal growth factor gene family plays a role in early development decisions in sea urchin embryos.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromosomal stability of mesenchymal stromal cells during in vitro culture.

TL;DR: Karyotyping of MSCs reveals characteristics which may be valuable in deciding the suitability of cells for further use, and indicates that chromosomal abnormalities exist in M SCs at early passages and can be clonally propagated.
