Dear all,

I am searching for the X. laevis mutant that, as the heterozygote 1-nu, lacks one nucleolus in most of their diploid cells. This mutant was described by Elsdale et al. (1) and was then further characterized by Brown & Gurdon (2, 3). Any information on live animals would be appreciated.

Thanks and kind regards
Reinhard Obst
