Segregation during cleavage of a factor determining endodermal alkaline phosphatase development in ascidian embryos
J. R. Whittaker,J. R. Whittaker +1 more
TL;DR: Embryos in which cell division was blocked with cytochalasin B at early cleavage stages up to the 64-cell stage, eventually differentiated strong alkaline phosphatase activity in certain cells at each cleavage-arrested stage, and a puromycin sensitivity period coincident with this time suggests that new alkaline phosphate activity is synthesized.
