Hox genes are highly conserved developmental genes involved in the patterning of the anterior-posterior axis of nearly all metazoan animals. While Hox genes have been characterized for many bilaterians, several cryptic taxa, often comprising microscopic specimens, have hitherto been neglected. We here present the first combined transcriptomic and genomic Hox gene study for Entoprocta (=Kamptozo...
Leukemia is a complex heterogeneous disease often driven by the expression of oncogenic fusion proteins with different molecular and biochemical properties. Whereas several fusion proteins induce leukemogenesis by activating Hox gene expression (Hox-activating fusions), others impinge on different pathways that do not involve the activation of Hox genes (non-Hox-activating fusions). It has been...
Molecular evidence suggests that Acoelomorpha, a proposed phylum composed of acoel and Nemertodermatida flatworms, are the most basal bilaterian animals. Hox and ParaHox gene complements characterised so far in acoels consist of a small set of genes, comprising representatives of anterior, central and posterior genes, altogether Hox and ParaHox, but no PG3-Xlox representatives have been reporte...
The amphioxus Hox cluster is often viewed as "archetypal" for the chordate lineage. Here, we present a descriptive account of the 448 kb region spanning the Hox cluster of the amphioxus Branchiostoma floridae from Hox14 to Hox1. We provide complete coding sequences of all 14 previously described amphioxus sequences and give a detailed analysis of the conserved noncoding regulatory sequence elem...
The mouse Hox-2.3 gene contains an Antp-like homeobox sequence and is expressed in a spatially restricted anteroposterior domain during development. To study the molecular basis of this differential gene regulation, we set out to characterize the cis-regulatory elements mediating Hox-2.3 expression during embryogenesis. We show that a fragment extending 1316 base pairs (bp) upstream of the tran...
The perception of environmental stimuli is mediated through a diverse group of first-order sensory relay interneurons located in stereotypic positions along the dorsoventral (DV) axis of the neural tube. These interneurons form contiguous columns along the anteroposterior (AP) axis. Like neural crest cells and motoneurons, first-order sensory relay interneurons also require specification along ...
Hox proteins play fundamental roles in controlling morphogenetic diversity along the anterior-posterior body axis of animals by regulating distinct sets of target genes. Within their rather broad expression domains, individual Hox proteins control cell diversification and pattern formation and consequently target gene expression in a highly localized manner, sometimes even only in a single cell...
Scorpions (order Scorpiones) are unusual among arthropods, both for the extreme heteronomy of their bauplan and for the high gene family turnover exhibited in their genomes. These phenomena appear to be correlated, as two scorpion species have been shown to possess nearly twice the number of Hox genes present in most arthropods. Segmentally offset anterior expression boundaries of a subset of H...
HOX GENES ARE IMPORTANT: their central role in anterior-posterior patterning provides a framework for molecular comparison of animal body plan evolution. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans stands out as having a greatly reduced Hox gene complement. To address this, orthologs of C. elegans Hox genes were identified in six species from across the Nematoda, and they show that rapid homeodomain se...
Molecular developmental studies of various bilaterians have shown that the identity of the anteroposterior body axis is controlled by Hox and ParaHox genes. Detailed Hox and ParaHox gene expression data are available for conchiferan mollusks, such as gastropods (snails and slugs) and cephalopods (squids and octopuses), whereas information on the putative conchiferan sister group, Aculifera, is ...
