Open AccessXbra modulates the activity of linker region phosphorylated Smad1 during Xenopus development
The Bmp/Smad1 pathway plays a crucial role in developmental processes and tissue homeostasis. Mitogen-activated protein kinase (Mapk)/Erk mediated phosphorylation of Smad1 in the linker region leads to Smad1 d...

Open AccessFoxd4l1.1 negatively regulates transcription of neural repressor ventx1.1 during neuroectoderm formation in Xenopus embryos
Neuroectoderm formation is the first step in development of a proper nervous system for vertebrates. The developmental decision to form a non-neural ectoderm versus a neural one involves the regulation of BMP ...

Open AccessXbra and Smad-1 cooperate to activate the transcription of neural repressor ventx1.1 in Xenopus embryos
Crosstalk of signaling pathways play crucial roles in cell proliferation, cell differentiation, and cell fate determination for development. In the case of ventx1.1 in Xenopus embryos, both BMP-4/Smad-1 and FGF/X...
