Abstract:
Large foreheads can be induced by ribonucleoprotein particles from Xenopus laevis eggs and embryos. The host embryos develop only a rudimentary primary axis. A neural inducing factor from the cytosol of gastrula-neurula stages has been partially purified. The factors are associated with other proteins in larger complexes.
