Three calcium-sensitive genes, fus, brd3 and wdr5, are highly expressed in neural and renal territories during amphibian development

►A subtractive library identifies fus, brd3 and wdr5 as new calcium target genes. ► We examine the expression patterns of these early calcium-sensitive target genes. ► fus, brd3 and wdr5 expressions are spatially and temporally restricted in Xenopus. ► We report the expressions of fus, brd3 and wdr5 in the developing kidney.
