High impact information on mapk14a

  • The area affected by the DN-p38 expression did not correlate with the initial cleavage plane, but coincided with the side where dharma/bozozok, a dorsal-specific zygotic gene, was expressed (Yamanaka et al. 1998) [1].
  • When a dominant negative (DN) form of p38 was uniformly expressed, blastomere cleavage was impaired on one side of the blastodisc, resulting in the formation of blastomeres with a large mass of cytoplasm and an enlarged nucleus on the affected side [1].
  • Phosphorylation of the transactivation domain of Pax6 by extracellular signal-regulated kinase and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase [2].
  • Erk2,3 and p38a were expressed at a constant level throughout zebrafish embryogenesis, whereas erk1,4,5,6,7 and p38b showed specific temporal expression patterns [3].
