Gene expansion and retention leads to a diverse tyrosine kinase superfamily in amphioxus
(Oxford University Press, 2008)Tyrosine kinase (TK) proteins play a central role in cellular behavior and development of animals. The expansion of this superfamily is regarded as a key event in the evolution of the complex signaling pathways and gene ... -
The Amphioxus Hox Cluster: Characterization, Comparative Genomics, and Evolution.
(Wiley, 2008-03-19)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 ... -
Unexpectedly large number of conserved noncoding regions within the ancestral chordate Hox cluster
(Springer, 2008)The single amphioxus Hox cluster contains 15 genes and may well resemble the ancestral chordate Hox cluster. We have sequenced the Hox genomic complement of the European amphioxus Branchiostoma lanceolatum and compared it ...
