Developmental functions of mammalian Hox genes.
The structure of the four murine Hox complexes and the co-ordinate expression patterns of Hox genes have been elucidated for almost a decade. However, clues about their developmental functions have been recently uncovered from the analysis of loss-of-function mutants generated by the gene targeting technique, as well as from transgenic mice with altered Hox gene expression domains. The 'anterio...
متن کاملNew genetic resources for mammalian developmental biologists
The utilization of homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells as a means to generate mice carrying pre-determined modifications of genomic sequences has revolutionized the study of developmental biology. Recognizing the potential efficiencies that can be obtained by high-throughput production at centralized technology centers, a number of large-scale efforts for generating mice with targe...
متن کاملDevelopmental biology: an array of new possibilities.
Microarrays offer biologists comprehensive and powerful tools to analyze the involvement of genes in developmental processes at an unprecedented scale. Microarrays that employ defined sequences will permit us to elucidate genetic relationships and responses, while those that employ undefined DNA sequences (ESTs, cDNA, or genomic libraries) will help us to discover new genes, relate them to docu...
متن کاملA new century of amphibian developmental biology.
Amphibian embryology has a long, rich history tracing back more than century in the recorded literature. Newt, salamander and frog embryos collected in the wild and subject to the keen minds and crafty hands of early embryologists yielded some of the most important first principals of developmental biology, including those of fate maps, egg polarity, embryo polarity, the concept of specificatio...
