<h4>Background</h4>The zinc-finger transcription factor CASZ1 is required for differentiation of a distinct population of cardiomyocytes during development. However, expression of Casz1 mRNA is detected throughout the developing heart, suggesting the spatial regulation of CASZ1 occurs at the protein level. Relatively little is known about posttranscriptional regulation of Casz1 in the heart.<h4>Results</h4>We generated antibodies that specifically recognize CASZ1 in developing Xenopus embryos, a ...[more]
