Characterisation of a conserved motif found within the Dlx cis-regulatory element URE2 and its effect on mouse URE2-lacZ activity in transgenic mice
The Distal-less-like genes, commonly referred to as Dlx genes, encode homeodomain transcription factors essential for the establishment of GABAergic interneurons in the ventral forebrain as well as their migration to the cortex. The cis-regulatory element URE2 (enhancer) is located upstream of Dlx1 …

An ancestral regulatory mechanism underlies Hoxd gene expression in both developing genitals and digits
Coordinated expression of HoxD cluster genes is crucial for the emergence and patterning of both developing digits and external genitalia. As a shared evolutionary origin has been proposed for these secondary structures, which may have accompanied the transition from an aquatic towards a …
