Early embryogenesis relies on maternally inherited mRNAs. Although the mechanism of
maternal mRNA degradation during maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) has been …

Embryos from females homozygous for a recessive maternal-effect mutation in the gene
aura exhibit defects including reduced cortical integrity, defective cortical granule (CG) …

Zebrafish germ plasm is composed of mRNAs such as vasa and nanos and of proteins such
as Bucky ball, all of which localize symmetrically in four aggregates at the distal region of the …

During the first few cell division cycles in zebrafish, distinct Ca2+ transients are localized to
the early embryonic cleavage furrows, where they accompany (and are required for) furrow …

In zebrafish embryos, distinct Ca2+ transients are localized to the early cleavage furrows
during the first few cell division cycles. These transients are generated mainly by release via …

Antioxidant cellular mechanisms are essential for cell redox homeostasis during animal
development and in adult life. Previous in situ hybridization analyses of antioxidant enzymes …

Interest in the role of Ca 2+ signalling as a possible regulator of the combinatorial processes
that result in the separation of the daughter cells during cytokinesis, extend back almost a …
