Our work exploring a new explanation for the regulation of Hoxd genes and the #fin-to-limb transition. 🧪
It was an absolute joy working on this w/ @aurhin.bsky.social and @homeobox.bsky.social @denisduboule.bsky.social @neilshubin.bsky.social

Are digits modified fins, or evolutionary innovations? Read how we tackled this old question from a new angle🧪
A story with @chasebolt.bsky.social, @homeobox.bsky.social and myself, coordinated by @denisduboule.bsky.social from @college-de-france.fr and published in @nature.com today!

The posterior flexibility of Hox genes—previously hypothesized for chordates—likely contributed to the development of the chaetognath tail during the early Cambrian period.

Why adults should be on top of the hourglass and embryos at the bottom, rather than the opposite. And why a mountain rope with carabiners cannot fully explain the dynamics of gene extrusion by loop extrusion. Special issue on the #organizer #InHoxWeTrust

We wrote this for the #SpemannMangold organiser centennial meeting #Freiburg 🙏 It is about whether early embryos should be on top 👆or at the bottom👇of the #hourglass🤔(and other issues)🤓 #InHoxWeTrust 🤟pegasus.epfl.ch/
