Abstract

Summary: Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are catalytic subunits of multiprotein complexes that are targeted to specific promoters through their interaction with different transcriptional repressors causing silencing of the corresponding genes. This study describes the isolation of dHDAC4, a novel, catalytically active class II Drosophila histone deacetylase, and the analysis of its role in embryonic development. In early embryos, dHDAC4 is expressed in several phases. Initial ubiquitous expression becomes localized to an anterior domain, then evolves into a pair‐rule‐like and finally into a segment‐polarity‐like pattern. Suppression of dHDAC4 during early embryogenesis by double‐stranded RNA interference led to segmentation defects. Analysis of dHDAC4 expression in gap and pair‐rule gene mutants demonstrated that hunchback, knirps, and giant activate, while even‐skipped suppresses dHDAC4 expression. These data revealed dHDAC4 involvement in the segmentation regulatory pathway and suggested complex transcriptional regulation as a potential mechanism that controls its expression. genesis 35:31–38, 2003. © 2002 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Invertebrates like Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster conserve the canonical Y and should retain canonical HDAC catalytic activity.

    “Invertebrates like Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster conserve the canonical Y and, accordingly, should retain canonical HDAC catalytic activity as suggested previously (25,26).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
