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 ...

Heterogeneous combinatorial expression of Hoxd genes in single cells during limb development

Denis Duboule, Marion Leleu, Pierre Raymond Fabre

Background: Global analyses of gene expression during development reveal specific transcription patterns associated with the emergence of various cell types, tissues, and organs. These heterogeneous patterns are instrumental to ensure the proper formation ...

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 ...

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 ...

Tetrapod axial evolution and developmental constraints; Empirical underpinning by a mouse model

Denis Duboule

The tetrapod vertebral column has become increasingly complex during evolution as an adaptation to a terrestrial life. At the same time, the evolution of the vertebral formula became subject to developmental constraints acting on the size of the cervical a ...

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 ...

Amer Assoc Advancement Science2013

The molecular mechanisms that govern bone and joint formation are complex, involving an integrated network of signaling pathways and gene regulators. We investigated the role of Hox genes, which are known to specify individual segments of the skeleton, in ...

Additive and global functions of HoxA cluster genes in mesoderm derivatives

Denis Duboule, Freddy Radtke, Ute Koch

Hox genes encode transcription factors that play a central role in the specification of regional identities along the anterior to posterior body axis. In the developing mouse embryo, Hox genes from all four genomic clusters are involved in range of develop ...

Elsevier2010

Denis Duboule is one of the most influential and highly-cited scientists in developmental biology. Born in Geneva in 1955, he holds dual Swiss and French nationality. His undergraduate studies in biology at the University of Geneva included research on mou ...

2009

During development of the vertebrate body axis, Hox genes are transcribed sequentially, in both time and space, following their relative positions within their genomic clusters. Analyses of animal genomes support the idea that Hox gene clustering is essent ...
