Xenopus Actin Grant Movies
Each movie requires Apple's QuickTime player.
The time-lapse movie below shows two sibling Xenopus leavis embryos undergoing neurulation. The embryo in left is an uninjected control, the embryo in right has been depleted of N-cadherin protein in the neural plate using an antisense morpholino. In the N-cadherin depleted embryo, the neural plate fails to undergo invagination and remains open. Due to the pushing forces applied by the unaffected non-neural ectoderm, a distinct lip like structure appears surrounding the N-cadherin depleted neural plate.
