## Abstract Meiotic maturation was induced in __Xenopus laevis__ oocytes when the external Ca^++^ or Mg^++^ion concentration was raised above 5 mM in the presence of the ionophore. Ionophoreβdivalent cationβinduced maturation appears to be due to the stimulation of the oocyte itself. Cytoplasm of r

The growth-promoting properties of the retroviral v-erbA oncogene, a highly mutated version of the chicken thyroid hormone receptor (TR) β£, have so far exclusively been linked to dominant repression of the antimitogenic roles of TR and retinoic acid receptors. Here we show that when expressed in Xen
