    The phylogeny of echinoderm classes based on mitochondrial gene arrangements

    Previous analyses have demonstrated that, among the echinoderms, the sea star (class: Asteroidea) mitochondrial genome contains a large inversion in comparison to the mitochondrial DNA of sea urchins (class: E...

    Nucleotide sequence of nine protein-coding genes and 22 tRNAs in the mitochondrial DNA of the sea starPisaster ochraceus

    We have cloned and sequenced over 9 kb of the mitochondrial genome from the sea starPisaster ochraceus. Within a continuous 8.0-kb fragment are located the genes for NADH dehydrogenase subunits 1, 2, 3, and 4L (N...

    Multiple interactions in juxtaposed monolayers of amphibian neuronal, epidermal, and mesodermal limb blastema cells

    We have utilized a novel cell culture system to probe nerve-epidermal-blastema cell interactions, in which the cellular participants are plated as compartmentalized juxtaposed monolayers. A mesoderm monolayer ...
