Abstract

Together with echinoderms and chordates, hemichordates constitute the third major group of the deuterostomes, which share a number of common developmental features. The Brachyury gene is responsible for the formation of notochord, the most defining feature of chordates. Therefore, isolation and characterization of the hemichordate homolog of Brachyury is key to understand the origin and evolution of chordates. Here we show that the hemichordate Brachyury gene (PfBra) is expressed in two regions of the gastrula and young tornaria larva, the archenteron invagination region and the stomodeum invagination region.

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, 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?

  • Hemichordate and echinoderm dipleurula larvae both express Brachyury in the oral and anal regions of the larval gut.

    “Thus both hemichordate and echinoderm dipleurula larvae express the Brachyury gene in the oral and anal regions of the larval gut.”

  • All deuterostome dipleurula larvae share significant similarities.

    “The notion that significant similarities are shared by all deuterostome dipleurula larvae is further supported by new studies on Brachyury expression in enteropneust hemichordates”

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.
