Journal ArticleDOI

The draft genome of Ciona intestinalis : insights into chordate and vertebrate origins

Paramvir S. Dehal, +89 more
- 13 Dec 2002 - 
TL;DR: A draft of the protein-coding portion of the genome of the most studied ascidian, Ciona intestinalis, is generated, suggesting that ascidians contain the basic ancestral complement of genes involved in cell signaling and development.
Journal ArticleDOI

The amphioxus genome illuminates vertebrate origins and cephalochordate biology

Linda Z. Holland, +71 more
- 01 Jul 2008 - 
TL;DR: The results indicate that the amphioxus genome is elemental to an understanding of the biology and evolution of nonchordate deuterostomes, invertebrate chordates, and vertebrates.
Journal ArticleDOI

A genomewide survey of developmentally relevant genes in Ciona intestinalis. II. Genes for homeobox transcription factors.

TL;DR: The draft genome sequence and cDNA/EST database of the basal chordate Ciona intestinalis are searched to reveal the repertoire of homeodomain-containing transcription factors in the Ciona genome, which will be useful for future research on the development and evolution of chordates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Spatially and temporally regulated expression of the LIM class homeobox gene Hrlim suggests multiple distinct functions in development of the ascidian, Halocynthia roretzi

TL;DR: It is suggested that Hrlim plays multiple distinct roles in ascidian embryogenesis, particularly in certain lineages that give rise to subsets of cells in the brain and spinal cord.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hroth, an orthodenticle-related homeobox gene of the ascidian, Halocynthia roretzi: its expression and putative roles in the axis formation during embryogenesis

TL;DR: It was revealed that Hroth is expressed in both involuting mesoendoderm and anterior ectoderm during gastrulation while later expression is restricted to the sensory vesicle and anterior epidermis.
