Ancestral role of caudal genes in axis elongation and segmentation.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 21 Dec 2004

Copf Tijana, Schröder Reinhard, Averof Michalis

Abstract excerpt

caudal (cad/Cdx) genes are essential for the formation of posterior structures in Drosophila, Caenorhabditis elegans, and vertebrates. In contrast to Drosophila, the majority of arthropods generate their segments sequentially from a posteriorly located growth zone, a process known as short-germ development. caudal homologues are expressed in the growth zone of diverse short-germ arthropods, but until now their...
