Calle Mustienes, Elisa de la; Feijóo, Carmen Gloria; Manzanares, Miguel; Tena, Juan J.; Rodríguez Seguel, Elisa; Letizia, Annalisa; Allende Connelly, Miguel; Gómez Skarmeta, José Luis (COLD SPRING HARBOR LAB PRESS, 2010-05-25)Recent studies of the genome architecture of vertebrates have uncovered two unforeseen aspects of its organization. First, large regions of the genome, called gene deserts, are devoid of protein-coding sequences and have ...

The Irx gene family in zebrafish: genomic structure, evolution and initial characterization of irx5b Feijóo, Carmen Gloria; Manzanares, Miguel; Calle Mustienes, Elisa de la; Gómez Skarmeta, José Luis; Allende Connelly, Miguel (SPRINGER, 2004-04-03)Genes of the iroquois (Iro/Irx) family are highly conserved from Drosophila to mammals and they have been implicated in a number of developmental processes. In flies, the Iro genes participate in patterning events in ...

Gómez Skarmeta, José Luis; Calle Mustienes, Elisa de la; Modolell, J. (Company of Biologists Ltd, 2001)In the early Xenopus embryo, the Xiro homeodomain proteins of the Iroquois (Iro) family control the expression of proneural genes and the size of the neural plate. We report that Xiro1 functions as a repressor that is ...

Gómez Skarmeta, José Luis; Calle Mustienes, Elisa de la; Modolell, Juan; Mayor, Roberto (1999)The forkhead type Brain-Factor 2 from mouse and chicken help pattern the forebrain, optic vesicle and kidney. We have isolated a Xenopus homolog (Xbf2) and found that during gastrulation it is expressed in the dorsolateral ...

Calle Mustienes, Elisa de la; Glavic Maurer, Álvaro; Modolell, Juan; Gómez Skarmeta, José Luis (2002)The iroquois (iro) homeobox genes participate in many developmental processes both in vertebrates and invertebrates, among them are neural plate formation and neural patterning. In this work, we study in detail Xenopus ...

Gómez Skarmeta, José Luis; Glavic Maurer, Álvaro; Calle Mustienes, Elisa de la; Modolell, Juan; Mayor, Roberto (1998)The Drosophila homeoproteins Ara and Caup are members of a combination of factors (prepattern) that control the highly localized expression of the proneural genes achaete and scute. We have identified two Xenopus homologs ...

Calle Mustienes, Elisa de la; Gómez Skarmeta, José Luis (2000)Ligand-bound nuclear receptors (NRs) recruit cofactors such as members of the p160 family and CREB-binding protein (CBP) to activate transcription. We have cloned the Xenopus homologue of the human transcription intermediary ...
