HOX13-dependent chromatin accessibility underlies the transition towards the digit development program

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 ...

Coordinated Hoxd genes expression during embryogenesis is dependent on a strict disposition of genes and polarized regulators within the HoxD cluster

Fabrice Daniel Darbellay

HOX transcription factors determine the identity of body regions along the rostro-caudal axis during bilaterian embryogenesis. In vertebrates Hox genes distinctively lie organized in dense clusters, each typically composed of a dozen paralogous transcripti ...

Integration of Shh and Fgf signaling in controlling Hox gene expression in cultured limb cells

Denis Duboule, Guillaume Andrey, Patrick Schorderet, Nayuta Yakushiji

During embryonic development, fields of progenitor cells form complex structures through dynamic interactions with external signaling molecules. How complex signaling inputs are integrated to yield appropriate gene expression responses is poorly understood ...

A role for HOX13 proteins in the regulatory switch between TADs at the HoxD locus

Denis Duboule, Leonardo Beccari, Anamaria Necsulea, Nicolas Lonfat, Edgardo Rodriguez Carballo, Nayuta Yakushiji

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 ...

Deleterious effects of roving on learned tasks

Michael Herzog, Lukasz Grzeczkowski, Aaron Michael Clarke, Fred Mast

In typical perceptual learning experiments, one stimulus type (e.g., a bisection stimulus offset either to the left or right) is presented per trial. In roving, two different stimulus types (e.g., a 30' and a 20' wide bisection stimulus) are randomly inter ...

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

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

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 ...

Regulatory Switches Underlie Hoxd Gene Activation in Tetrapod Limbs

Guillaume Andrey

Accurate spatio-temporal control of Hox cluster genes expression is critical for the proper organization of body structures during vertebrate embryogenesis. In the limbs, Hoxd genes are critical in setting up the proximodistal and anteroposterior axes. Sev ...

A function for all posterior Hoxd genes during digit development?

Denis Duboule, Saskia Joëlle Delpretti Anex, Jozsef Zakany

Background: Four posterior Hoxd genes, from Hoxd13 to Hoxd10, are collectively regulated during the development of tetrapod digits. Besides the well-documented role of Hoxd13, the function of the neighboring genes has been difficult to evaluate due to the ...

Interactions between HOXD and Gli3 genes control the limb apical ectodermal ridge via Fgf10

Denis Duboule, Jozsef Zakany

The development of the vertebrate limb is dependent upon two signaling centers, the apical ectodermal ridge (AER), which provides the underlying mesenchyme with essential growth factors, and the zone of polarizing activity (ZPA), the source of the Sonic he ...

The role of Hox genes during vertebrate limb development

Denis Duboule, Jozsef Zakany

The potential role of Hox genes during vertebrate limb development was brought into focus by gene expression analyses in mice (P Dolle, JC Izpisua-Belmonte, H Falkenstein, A Renucci, D Duboule, Nature 1989, 342:767-772), at a time when limb growth and patt ...
