TL;DR: XCoe2 may play a pivotal role in the transcriptional cascade that specifies primary neurons in Xenopus embryos: by maintaining Delta-Notch signalling, XCoe 2 stabilises the higher neural potential of selected progenitor cells that express X-ngnr-1, ensuring the transition between neural competence and irreversible commitment to a neural fate.

TL;DR: The name of X-msr is proposed for mesenchyme-associated serpentine receptor, a novel member of the G protein-coupled receptor superfamily in Xenopus that traces an endothelial lineage and represents a very early and unique marker in xenopus of the specification of cardiac and vascular endothelia.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors described the purification of a 15 kDa lectin, named XCL, from the Xerocomus chrysenteron, which is an edible mushroom with insecticidal properties.

TL;DR: The GHR contains a proline-rich region, called "Box I," conserved in the cytokine/GH/prolactin receptor family, which is also critical for GH signal transduction.

TL;DR: The specific structural features and sequence signatures in each protein family suggest a potential sugar binding site in XCL and a possible evolutionary relationship between these proteins.
