This protocol details the oocyte host-transfer method in Xenopus, using transplantation by intraperitoneal injection. This approach is suitable for the overexpression of mRNAs and for the use of antisense oligonucleotides to deplete maternal mRNAs, which are not replaced until zygotic genome activation in the mid-blastula transition. Xenopus oocyte host-transfer can also be used for highly efficient mutagenesis in the F0 generation by prefertilization injection of genome editing reagents.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 January 2018.
All research outputs
#20,459,801
of 23,016,919 outputs
Outputs from Cold Spring Harbor Protocols
#778
of 979 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#379,461
of 443,289 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Cold Spring Harbor Protocols
#23
of 34 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,016,919 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 979 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.2. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 443,289 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 34 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
