Evolution of eumetazoan nervous systems: Insights from cnidarians
Kelava, Iva; Rentzsch, Fabian; Technau, Ulrich (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-12-19)Cnidarians, the sister group to bilaterians, have a simple diffuse nervous system. This morphological simplicity and their phylogenetic position make them a crucial group in the study of the evolution of the nervous system. ... -
Generating transgenic reporter lines for studying nervous system development in the cnidarian nematostella vectensis
Rentzsch, Fabian; Renfer, Eduard; Technau, Ulrich (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Neurons often display complex morphologies with long and fine processes that can be difficult to visualize, in particular in living animals. Transgenic reporter lines in which fluorescent proteins are expressed in defined ... -
Muscle cell-type diversification is driven by bHLH transcription factor expansion and extensive effector gene duplications
Cole, Alison G.; Jahnel, Stefan M.; Kaul, Sabrina; Steger, Julia; Hagauer, Julia; Denner, Andreas; Murguia, Patricio Ferrer; Taudes, Elisabeth; Zimmermann, Bob; Reischl, Robert; Steinmetz, Patrick; Technau, Ulrich (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Animals are typically composed of hundreds of different cell types, yet mechanisms underlying the emergence of new cell types remain unclear. Here we address the origin and diversification of muscle cells in the non-bilaterian, ...
