Phenotypic determination of epithelial appendages: genes, developmental pathways, and evolution.
Epithelial appendages are derivatives of epithelia that elaborate to form specialized structures and functions. The appendage can protrude out, such as in teeth and feathers, or invaginate in, such as in glands. The epithelia can be ectodermal, such as in hairs, or endodermal, such as in livers. Using feather as a prototype of epithelial appendage, we study the molecular signals involved in the...

15 صفحه اولThe evolution of developmental regulatory pathways.
Evolutionary analysis of the content of developmental regulatory pathways has been advanced by the publication of pairs of complete genome sequences from representative taxonomic groups. Annotation of the fission yeast, rice, and mouse genomes confirms that most regulatory families are shared among eukaryotes but also shows that certain gene families have restricted distributions. Theoretical a...
متن کاملDevelopmental regulatory genes and echinoderm evolution.
Modified interactions among developmental regulatory genes and changes in their expression domains are likely to be an important part of the developmental basis for evolutionary changes in morphology. Although developmental regulatory genes are now being studied in an increasing number of taxa, there has been little attempt to analyze the resulting data within an explicit phylogenetic context. ...
متن کاملFunction and evolution of sex determination mechanisms, genes and pathways in insects
Animals have evolved a bewildering diversity of mechanisms to determine the two sexes. Studies of sex determination genes--their history and function--in non-model insects and Drosophila have allowed us to begin to understand the generation of sex determination diversity. One common theme from these studies is that evolved mechanisms produce activities in either males or females to control a sh...
