Both Nuclear Size and DNA Amount Contribute to Midblastula Transition Timing in Xenopus laevis
Abstract During early Xenopus laevis embryogenesis both nuclear and cell volumes decrease with the nuclear-to-cytoplasmic (N/C) volume ratio reaching a maximum at the midblastula transition (MBT). At the MBT, embryonic transcription is upregulated and cell cycles lengthen. Early studies demonstrated...
