Journal ArticleDOI
A pair of Sox: distinct and overlapping functions of zebrafish sox9 co-orthologs in craniofacial and pectoral fin development
Yi-Lin Yan,John Willoughby,John Willoughby,Dong Liu,Justin Gage Crump,Catherine Wilson,Craig Miller,Craig Miller,Amy Singer,Charles B. Kimmel,Monte Westerfield,John H. Postlethwait +11 more
TL;DR: Analysis of mutant phenotypes strongly supports the interpretation that ancestral gene functions partitioned spatially and temporally between Sox9 co-orthologs, and shows that sox9 helps regulate other early crest genes, including foxd3, sox10, snai1b and crestin.
Journal ArticleDOI
A zebrafish sox9 gene required for cartilage morphogenesis
Yi-Lin Yan,Craig Miller,Robert M. Nissen,Amy Singer,Dong Liu,Anette Kirn,Bruce W. Draper,John Willoughby,Paul A. Morcos,Adam Amsterdam,Bon Chu Chung,Monte Westerfield,Pascal Haffter,Nancy Hopkins,Charles B. Kimmel,John H. Postlethwait +15 more
TL;DR: It is shown that jef (sox9a) is essential for both morphogenesis of condensations and overt cartilage differentiation and in morpholino-injected animals, the percent of splicing inhibition decreased from 80% at 28 hours post fertilization to 45% by 4 days.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fgf3 and Fgf8 dependent and independent transcription factors are required for otic placode specification.
Dong Liu,Hsin Chu,Lisa Maves,Yi-Lin Yan,Paul A. Morcos,John H. Postlethwait,Monte Westerfield +6 more
TL;DR: The results provide evidence for Fgf3- and FgF8-dependent and -independent genetic pathways for otic specification and support the notion that F gf3 and Ff8 function to induce both the otic placode and the epithelial organization of the oic vesicle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pax8 and Pax2a function synergistically in otic specification, downstream of the Foxi1 and Dlx3b transcription factors
TL;DR: It is suggested that the Foxi1-Pax8 pathway provides an early `jumpstart' of otic specification that is maintained by the Dlx3b-P Pax2a pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI
Steroidogenic factor 1 and estradiol receptor act in synergism to regulate the expression of the salmon gonadotropin II beta subunit gene.
TL;DR: It is suggested that the synergistic interaction of SF-1 and ER, possibly through cooperative binding or protein-protein interaction, is essential in conferring a cell type-specific expression of the GTHII beta subunit gene.
