Cell type-specific activation of actin genes in the early amphibian embryo.

T J Mohun, S Brennan, N Dathan, S Fairman, J B Gurdon.

Abstract

Muscle actin genes are the earliest yet described to show cell type-specific activation in amphibian embryos. Gene-specific probes show that alpha-skeletal and alpha-cardiac actin genes start to be transcribed simultaneously at the end of gastrulation, but only in those regions of the mesoderm that subsequently form embryonic muscle. Their expression provides a molecular marker for early cell determination.
