Large scale genomic reorganization of topological domains at the HoxD locus

Denis Duboule, Marion Leleu, Daniël Noordermeer, Lucille Delisle, Pierre Raymond Fabre, Leonardo Beccari, Benjamin Howard Mormann

BACKGROUND: The transcriptional activation of HoxD genes during mammalian limb development involves dynamic interactions with two topologically associating domains (TADs) flanking the HoxD cluster. In particular, the activation of the most posterior HoxD g ...

Enhancer loops appear stable during development and are associated with paused polymerase

Daniël Noordermeer

Developmental enhancers initiate transcription and are fundamental to our understanding of developmental networks, evolution and disease. Despite their importance, the properties governing enhancer-promoter interactions and their dynamics during embryogene ...

Chromatin looping and organization at developmentally regulated gene loci

Denis Duboule, Daniël Noordermeer

Developmentally regulated genes are often controlled by distant enhancers, silencers and insulators, to implement their correct transcriptional programs. In recent years, the development of 3C and derived techniques (4C, 5C, HiC, ChIA- PET, etc.) has confi ...

A switch between topological domains underlies HoxD genes collinearity in mouse limbs

Didier Trono, Denis Duboule, Marion Leleu, Guillaume Andrey, Daniël Noordermeer

Hox genes are major determinants of the animal body plan, where they organize structures along both the trunk and appendicular axes. During mouse limb development, Hoxd genes are transcribed in two waves: early on, when the arm and forearm are specified, a ...
