T-box genes are defined by the presence of a conserved sequence, the so-called T-box; this codes for the T-domain, which is involved in DNA-binding and protein dimerisation. Members of this gene family have been found in all metazoans, from diploblasts to humans, and mutations in T-box gene family members in humans have been linked to several congenital disorders. Sequencing of the complete genomes of a range of invertebrate and vertebrate species has allowed the classification of individual T-box genes into five subfamilies: Brachyury, T-brain1, Tbx1, Tbx2 and Tbx6. This review will largely focus on T-box genes identified in organisms whose genomes have been fully sequenced, emphasising how comparative studies of the T-box gene family will help to reveal the roles of these genes during development and in the adult. 相似文献

Most animals are classified as Bilateria and only four phyla are still extant as outgroups, namely Porifera, Placozoa, Cnidaria and Ctenophora. These non-bilaterians were not considered to have a mesoderm and hence mesoderm-specific genes. However, the T-box gene Brachyury could be isolated from sponges, placozoans and cnidarians. Here, we describe the first Brachyury and a Tbx2/3 homologue from a ctenophore. In addition, analysing T-box and homeobox genes under comparable conditions in all four basal phyla lead to the discovery of novel T-box genes in sponges and cnidarians and a Tlx homeobox gene in the ctenophore Pleurobrachia pileus. The conservation of the T-box and the homeobox genes suggest that distinct subfamilies with different roles in bilaterians were already split in non-bilaterians. 相似文献

The T-box is a strongly conserved protein domain, 174 to 186 amino acids in length, that binds DNA. Many genes from many species have been shown to encode T-box domain-containing proteins. Here we report the cloning and characterization of a novel T-box gene, TBX21. The human cDNA contains an open reading frame encoding a 535-amino-acid protein with a predicted molecular mass of 58.3 kDa. Except for the T-box sequence, database searches revealed no significant homology to any known sequences at the nucleotide or protein level. In addition to the human cDNA sequence, we report the cDNA sequence of the murine homologue, the structure and organization of the murine Tbx21 gene, and its localization to mouse chromosome 11. TBX21 expression was detected in peripheral blood lymphocytes, spleen, lung, and natural killer cells. 相似文献
