Expression of the homeobox gene GBX2 during chicken development
We have examined the expression pattern of the GBX2 gene during chicken embryogenesis. First transcripts are found in the epiblast of a HH st. 3+ embryo. With the onset of neurogenesis, transcripts mark the posterior neuroectoderm. Later on, expression is detectable in the isthmic region, the hindbrain and the neural tube. We show that GBX2 transcripts, as well as the protein, mark the presumpt...
متن کاملExpression of the Optx2 homeobox gene during mouse development
Optx2, a member of the sine oculis-Six family of homeobox genes, is first expressed in the anterior neural plate of the mouse embryo, and subsequently in the optic vesicle and ventral forebrain. During later development, expression is further restricted to precursors of the neural retina, optic chiasm, adenohypophysis and neurohypophysis. In the adult mouse retina, Optx2 mRNA is found in cells ...
متن کاملThe mouse homeobox gene Gbx2 is required for the development of cholinergic interneurons in the striatum.
Mammalian forebrain cholinergic neurons are composed of local circuit neurons in the striatum and projection neurons in the basal forebrain. These neurons are known to arise from a common pool of progenitors that primarily resides in the medial ganglionic eminence (MGE). However, little is known about the genetic programs that differentiate these two types of cholinergic neurons. Using inducibl...
متن کاملThe chicken CdxA homeobox gene and axial positioning during gastrulation.
The chicken homebox containing gene, CdxA (formerly CHox-cad), was previously shown to be expressed during gastrulation. Localization of CdxA transcripts by in situ hybridization to tissue sections revealed that, during gastrulation, expression of this gene exhibits a posterior localization along the primitive streak. The transcripts are localized to epiblast cells in the vicinity of the primit...
متن کاملExpression of the Dan gene during chicken embryonic development
The Dan gene was first identified as the putative rat tumor suppressor gene and encodes a protein structurally related to Cerberus and Gremlin in vertebrates. Xenopus DAN, as with Cerberus and Gremlin, was demonstrated to block bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling by binding BMPs, and to be capable of inducing additional anterior structures by ectopic overexpression in Xenopus embryos. DA...
