Early Evolution of Conserved Regulatory Sequences Associated with Development in Vertebrates
Early Evolution of Conserved Regulatory Sequences Associated with Development in Vertebrates is a scholarly work by Greg Elgar and Hugo J Parker, published in 2009 in ''PLOS Genetics''. The main subjects of the publication include lamprey, evolutionary biology, genome, Danio rerio, regulation of gene expression, conserved sequence, lineage, regulatory sequence, enhancer, computational biology, gene, genetically modified animal, sea lamprey, evolutionary developmental biology, Notch signaling pathway, genetics, fugu, Vertebrata, and biology. The authors have now exploited emerging genomic sequence data for the sea lamprey, Petromyzon marinus, to explore the depth of conservation of this type of element in the earliest diverging extant vertebrate lineage, the jawless fish (agnathans).
