Nodal signalling in Xenopus: the role of Xnr5 in left/right asymmetry and heart development

Nodal class TGF-β signalling molecules play essential roles in establishing the vertebrate body plan. In all vertebrates, nodal family members have specific waves of expression required for tissue specification and axis formation. In Xenopus laevis, six nodal genes are expressed before gastrulation,...
