Resumen

La expresión del gen XIHbox 1 en las extremidades de Xenopus revela un gradiente antero-posterior en las extremidades delanteras y la ausencia en las extremidades traseras. Esto sugiere diferencias moleculares tempranas y un papel en el desarrollo de las extremidades de tetrápodos.

Determination

During embryogenesis, cells become progressively committed to different fates through a two-step process: specification followed by determination. Specification is demonstrated by removing a segment of an early embryo, “neutrally” culturing the tissue in vitro—for example, in a petri dish with simple medium—and then observing the derivatives. If the cultured region gives rise to cell types that it would normally generate in the embryo, this means that it is specified. In...
