Deskripsi

An understanding of the ancestral state of the neural crest (NC) gene regulatory network (GRN) gives insight into vertebrate evolution. Here, the authors use transcriptomic and chromatin accessibility analyses of the lamprey NC, as well as cross-species enhancer assays, to identify GRN elements conserved throughout vertebrates.
