Sox Neuro, a new Drosophila Sox gene expressed in the developing central nervous system
We describe the identification and detailed expression pattern of a second Drosophila Sox gene, SoxNeuro (SoxN), highly related to mammalian group B Sox1, 2, 3 genes. SoxN is expressed in a highly dynamic pattern during embyogenesis, being associated with the development of the central nervous system (CNS), from the early steps onwards. We present strong evidence that the early SoxN neuroectode...
متن کاملA Drosophila group E Sox gene is dynamically expressed in the embryonic alimentary canal
We have identified a novel Drosophila Sox-domain gene, Sox100B, related to the vertebrate group E genes Sox9 and Sox10. In vertebrates, group E Sox genes are expressed in the developing gonad, adult kidney and gut as well as other tissues. During embryogenesis in Drosophila, Sox100B is expressed in two rows of large intestinal cells, in midgut basophilic cells, in the Malpighian tubules and at ...
متن کاملThe Drosophila SOX-domain protein Dichaete is required for the development of the central nervous system midline.
SOX-domain proteins are a class of developmentally important transcriptional regulators related to the mammalian testis determining factor SRY. In common with other SOX-domain genes, the Drosophila Dichaete gene has a dynamic expression profile in the developing central nervous system, including cells of the ventral midline. We find defects in the differentiation of midline glia and concomitant...
متن کاملRole of SOX family of transcription factors in central nervous system tumors.
SOX genes are developmental regulators with functions in the instruction of cell fate and maintenance of progenitor's identity during embryogenesis. They play additional roles during tissue homeostasis and regeneration in adults particularly in the Central Nervous System (CNS). In the last years a growing number of evidences has shown that mutations and dysfunction of SOX factors are implicated...
متن کاملPw Sox-1: the first member of the Sox gene family in Urodeles.
The Y chromosomal switch gene SRY, which initiates testis development during mammalian embryogenesis was recently described (l).The SRY-encoded protein contains a 79 amino acid DNA-binding motif referred to as an HMG-box (2) known to exist in other transcription factors or proteins involved in DNA bending (3). On the basis of the homology between their HMGboxes, other SRY-related genes have bee...
