Lens forming transformations in larval Xenopus laevis induced by denatured eye-cup or its whole protein complement.
Implants of lensectomized eye placed between the outer and inner cornea, denatured by ethanol treatment and implants of total protein pellets from homogenates of lensectomized eyes, induce lens-forming transformations of the outer cornea of larval Xenopus laevis.
