MBD2 is required for correct spatial gene expression in the gut.
Gene expression in the gut is segmentally regulated, but little is known of the molecular origin of patterning. Analysis of gene expression in colons from mice lacking the methyl-CpG binding repressor MBD2 revealed frequent activation of genes that are normally only expressed in the exocrine pancreas and duodenum. Reduced DNA methylation activated the same gene set in the colon. No significant ...
متن کاملGene Expression Is Required for Correct Axon Guidance
As axons form connections in the developing brain, they often change course before they reach their final target. An outstanding question concerning changes in axon guidance is whether autonomous gene expression directs axons to their targets. If autonomous gene expression is required during axon guidance, then at least some aspects of guidance may be irreversible. Once commissural axons cross ...
متن کاملNeighbourhood Continuity Is Not Required for Correct Testis Gene Expression in Drosophila
It is now widely accepted that gene organisation in eukaryotic genomes is non-random and it is proposed that such organisation may be important for gene expression and genome evolution. In particular, the results of several large-scale gene expression analyses in a range of organisms from yeast to human indicate that sets of genes with similar tissue-specific or temporal expression profiles are...
متن کاملA conserved retinoic acid responsive element in the murine Hoxb-1 gene is required for expression in the developing gut.
The murine Hoxb-1 gene contains a homeobox sequence and is expressed in a spatiotemporal specific pattern in neuroectoderm, mesoderm and gut endoderm during development. We previously identified a conserved retinoic acid (RA)-inducible enhancer, named the RAIDR5, which contains a DR5 RARE; this RAIDR5 enhancer is located 3' of the Hoxb-1-coding region in both the mouse and chick. In the F9 muri...
متن کاملA Spatial Control for Correct Timing of Gene Expression during the Escherichia coli Cell Cycle
Temporal transcriptions of genes are achieved by different mechanisms such as dynamic interaction of activator and repressor proteins with promoters, and accumulation and/or degradation of key regulators as a function of cell cycle. We find that the TorR protein localizes to the old poles of the Escherichia coli cells, forming a functional focus. The TorR focus co-localizes with the nucleoid in...
