Glycolysis is an ancient metabolic activity. It consists of a set of reactions that convert glucose into energy. This central ...

We work in two areas. The first is traditional cell and molecular biology, focussed on the molecular mechanisms underlying mesoderm formation, and neural crest induction, and tissue and organ ...

The precursor cells of the spine and ribs are somitic mesoderm cells, which arise from the sides of the embryo's back and form—besides bones—also muscles and parts of the skin. The third group ...

The ability of TMEPAI to inhibit TGFβ signalling is physiological, as TMEPAI overexpression inhibits mesoderm formation induced by the TGFβ ligand (activin) in Xenopus laevis embryos.
