Conservation of core gene expression in vertebrate tissues

Esther T Chan, Gerald T Quon, Gordon Chua, Tomas Babak, Miles Trochesset, Ralph A Zirngibl, Jane Aubin, Michael JH Ratcliffe, Andrew Wilde, Michael Brudno, Quaid D Morris, Timothy R Hughes Journal of Biology 2009, 8:33 (16 April 2009)

High conservation of tissue-specific expression is found across vertebrates yet there is a lack of conservation in common regulatory sequences/signatures.

Functional diversification of sonic hedgehog paralog enhancers identified by phylogenomic reconstruction

Yavor Hadzhiev, Michael Lang, Raymond Ertzer, Axel Meyer, Uwe Strähle, Ferenc Müller Genome Biology 2007, 8:R106 (8 June 2007)

Investigation of the ar-C midline enhancer of sonic hedgehog orthologs and paralogs from distantly related vertebrate lineages identified lineage-specific motif changes; exchanging motifs between paralog enhancers resulted in the reversal of enhancer specificity.

Multiple non-collinear TF-map alignments of promoter regions

Enrique Blanco, Roderic Guigó, Xavier Messeguer BMC Bioinformatics 2007, 8:138 (24 April 2007)

Transcription factor binding site maps are a powerful way to reveal conserved regulatory elements within both promoters and 3' untranslated regions that may be missed by sequence alignments when sequence conservation is lacking.

Parallel evolution of conserved non-coding elements that target a common set of developmental regulatory genes from worms to humans

Tanya Vavouri, Klaudia Walter, Walter R Gilks, Ben Lehner, Greg Elgar Genome Biology 2007, 8:R15 (2 February 2007)

Invertebrate conserved noncoding elements (CNEs) are associated with the same core set of genes as vertebrate CNEs, and may reflect the parallel evolution of enhancers in the gene regulatory networks that define alternative animal body plans.
