Journal ArticleDOI

High-throughput discovery of novel developmental phenotypes

Mary E. Dickinson, +85 more
- 22 Sep 2016 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that human disease genes are enriched for essential genes, thus providing a dataset that facilitates the prioritization and validation of mutations identified in clinical sequencing efforts and reveals that incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity are common even on a defined genetic background.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Twist Code Determines the Onset of Osteoblast Differentiation

TL;DR: It is shown that Twist proteins transiently inhibit Runx2 function during skeletogenesis, which means that relief of inhibition by Twist proteins is a mandatory event precluding osteoblast differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ltap, a mammalian homolog of Drosophila Strabismus/Van Gogh, is altered in the mouse neural tube mutant Loop-tail.

TL;DR: Morphological and neural patterning studies indicate a role for the Lp gene product in controlling early morphogenesis and patterning of both axial midline structures and the developing neural plate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Gene defect in ectodermal dysplasia implicates a death domain adapter in development.

TL;DR: The findings show that the death receptor/adapter signalling mechanism is conserved in developmental, as well as apoptotic, signalling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic Dissection of Complex Traits with Chromosome Substitution Strains of Mice

TL;DR: The construction of a complete CSS panel for a vertebrate species shows that CSSs greatly facilitate the detection and identification of genes that control the wide diversity of naturally occurring phenotypic variation in the A/J and C57BL/6J inbred strains.
