CTCF-dependent insulation of Hoxb13 and the heterochronic control of tail length

Denis Duboule, Fabrice Daniel Darbellay, Lucille Delisle, Alexandre Gauthier Aurèle Mayran, Hocine Rekaik, Célia Corinne Renée Bochaton, Pierre Osteil

Mammalian tail length is controlled by several genetic determinants, among which are Hox13 genes, whose function is to terminate the body axis. Accordingly, the precise timing in the transcriptional activation of these genes may impact upon body length. Un ...

A CTCF-dependent mechanism underlies the Hox timer relation to a segmented body plan

Denis Duboule, Hocine Rekaik

During gastrulation, Hox genes are activated in a timesequence that follows the order of the genes along their clusters. This property, which is observed in all animals that develop following a progressive rostral-to-caudal morphogenesis, is associated wit ...

Sequential and directional insulation by conserved CTCF sites underlies the Hox timer in stembryos

Denis Duboule, Lucille Delisle, Alexandre Gauthier Aurèle Mayran, Hocine Rekaik, Célia Corinne Renée Bochaton

Temporal activation of Hox genes in mouse pseudo-embryos in vitro initiates at the anterior part of the cluster and is accompanied by asymmetric loading of cohesin. Posterior CTCF sites then successively act as transient insulators, regulating the timed tr ...

Comments on the Hox timer and related issues

Denis Duboule, Hocine Rekaik

In particular, this sequence is found in the 39 members of the amniote Hox gene family, a series of genes activated in mid-gastrulation and involved in organizing morphologies along the extending anterior to posterior (AP) body axis. Over the past 30 years ...
