Multi-species atlas resolves an axolotl limb development and regeneration paradox

Can Aztekin, Jixing Zhong, Georgios Tsissios, Evangelia Skoufa

Humans and other tetrapods are considered to require apical-ectodermal-ridge (AER) cells for limb development, and AER-like cells are suggested to be re-formed to initiate limb regeneration. Paradoxically, the presence of AER in the axolotl, a primary mode ...

Hox genes encode transcription factors (TFs) that establish morphological diversity in the developing embryo. The similar DNA-binding motifs of the various HOX TFs contrast with the wide-range of HOX-dependent genetic programs. The influence of the chromat ...

Fryns type mesomelic dysplasia of the upper limbs caused by inverted duplications of the HOXD gene cluster

Denis Duboule

The HoxD cluster is critical for vertebrate limb development. Enhancers located in both the telomeric and centromeric gene deserts flanking the cluster regulate the transcription of HoxD genes. In rare patients, duplications, balanced translocations or inv ...

In all tetrapods examined thus far, the development and patterning of limbs require the activation of gene members of the HoxD cluster. In mammals, they are regulated by a complex bimodal process that controls first the proximal patterning and then the dis ...

The HoxD cluster is a dynamic and resilient TAD boundary controlling the segregation of antagonistic regulatory landscapes.

Denis Duboule, Lucille Delisle, Pierre Raymond Fabre, Leonardo Beccari, Edgardo Rodriguez Carballo

The mammalian HoxD cluster lies between two topologically associating domains (TADs) matching distinct enhancer-rich regulatory landscapes. During limb development, the telomeric TAD controls the early transcription of Hoxd genes in forearm cells, whereas ...

Control of growth and gut maturation by &ITHoxD&IT genes and the associated lncRNA &ITHaglr&IT

Denis Duboule, Jozsef Zakany, Fabrice Daniel Darbellay, Anamaria Necsulea

During embryonic development, Hox genes participate in the building of a functional digestive system in metazoans, and genetic conditions involving these genes lead to important, sometimes lethal,growth retardation. Recently, this phenotype was obtained af ...

During vertebrate limb development, Hoxd genes are regulated following a bimodal strategy involving two topologically associating domains (TADs) located on either side of the gene cluster. These regulatory landscapes alternatively control different subsets ...

Reorganisation of Hoxd regulatory landscapes during the evolution of a snake-like body plan

Denis Duboule

Within land vertebrate species, snakes display extreme variations in their body plan, characterized by the absence of limbs and an elongated morphology. Such a particular interpretation of the basic vertebrate body architecture has often been associated wi ...

Hotair Is Dispensible for Mouse Development

Denis Duboule, Anamaria Necsulea

Despite the crucial importance of Hox genes functions during animal development, the mechanisms that control their transcription in time and space are not yet fully understood. In this context, it was proposed that Hotair, a lncRNA transcribed from within ...

Hox gene clusters of jaw vertebrates display a tight genomic organization, which has no equivalent in any other bilateria genomes sequenced thus far. It was previously argued that such a topological consolidation toward a condensed, metagenic structure was ...
