Ancora: a web resource for exploring highly conserved noncoding elements and their association with developmental regulatory genes
Engström, Pär G.; Fredman, David; Lenhard, Boris (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2008-02-12)Metazoan genomes contain arrays of highly conserved noncoding elements (HCNEs) that span developmental regulatory genes and define regulatory domains. We describe Ancora http:// ancora.genereg.net, a web resource that ... -
Exonic remnants of whole-genome duplication reveal cis-regulatory function of coding exons
Dong, Xianjun; Navratilova, Pavla; Fredman, David; Drivenes, Øyvind; Becker, Thomas S.; Lenhard, Boris (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009-12-06)Using a comparative genomics approach to reconstruct the fate of genomic regulatory blocks (GRBs) and identify exonic remnants that have survived the disappearance of their host genes after whole-genome duplication (WGD) ... -
Genomic regulatory blocks encompass multiple neighboring genes and maintain conserved synteny in vertebrates
Kikuta, Hiroshi; Laplante, Mary; Navrátilová, Pavla; Komisarczuk, Anna Zofia; Engström, Pär G.; Fredman, David; Akalin, Altuna; Caccamo, Mario; Sealy, Ian; Howe, Kerstin; Ghislain, Julien; Pezeron, Guillaume; Mourrain, Philippe; Ellingsen, Staale; Oates, Andrew C.; Thisse, Christine; Thisse, Bernard; Foucher, Isabelle; Adolf, Birgit; Geling, Andrea; Lenhard, Boris; Becker, Thomas S. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2007-03-06)We report evidence for a mechanism for the maintenance of long-range conserved synteny across vertebrate genomes. We found the largest mammal-teleost conserved chromosomal segments to be spanned by highly conserved noncoding ... -
Retroviral enhancer detection insertions in zebrafish combined with comparative genomics reveal genomic regulatory blocks - a fundamental feature of vertebrate genomes
Kikuta, Hiroshi; Fredman, David; Rinkwitz, Silke; Lenhard, Boris; Becker, Thomas S. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2007-10-31)A large-scale enhancer detection screen was performed in the zebrafish using a retroviral vector carrying a basal promoter and a fluorescent protein reporter cassette. Analysis of insertional hotspots uncovered areas around ... -
Synorth: exploring the evolution of synteny and long-range regulatory interactions in vertebrate genomes
Dong, Xianjun; Fredman, David; Lenhard, Boris (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009-08-21)Genomic regulatory blocks are chromosomal regions spanned by long clusters of highly conserved noncoding elements devoted to long-range regulation of developmental genes, often immobilizing other, unrelated genes into ...
