Gs. For the extended upstream DNA excision, BM predicts the TC disappearance and an experiment is proposed to test this BM prediction. Inside the chick limb bud C. Tickle et al. observed that the excision of the apical ectodermal ridge (AER) caused the inhibition of HoxA13 expression. However, the implantation of FGF soaked beads at the tip on the limb could surprisingly rescue HoxA13 expression immediately after 24 h in order that TC is restored.Brachyury transcription element (TF) is crucial in identifying the targets of this transcription and also a chromatin immunoprecipitation microarray chip (ChIP-chip) was produced which can be inserted in the mouse embryonic cells. It is here proposed to insert this chip inside the mutant cells exactly where TC has disappeared and evaluate it for the limb bud case.Is TC restored It is an essential challenge worth exploring. Abstract: It was observed that a cluster of ordered genes (Hox1, Hox2, Hox3 . . . ) in the genome are activated within the ontogenetic units (1, 2, three . . . ) of an embryo along the Anterior/Posterior axis following exactly the same order with the Hox genes. This Spatial Collinearity (SC) is quite strange because it correlates events of really diverse spatial dimensions. It was later observed in vertebrates, that, in the above ordering, very first is Hox1expressed in ontogenetic unit 1, followed later by Hox2 in unit 2 and also later Hox3 in unit three. This temporal collinearity (TC) is an enigma and in some cases to-day is explored in depth. In 1999 T. Kondo and D. Duboule, following posterior upstream extended DNA excisions, concluded that the Hox cluster behaves `as if’ TC disappears. Here the consideration of TC actually disappearing is taken face value and its repercussions are analyzed. In addition, an experiment is proposed to test TC disappearance. An outcome of this experiment might be the reappearance (partial or total) of TC.

Introduction Hox Gene Collinearity (HGC) is a fundamental home controlling development especially in the early embryonic stages of vertebrates and lots of other animal phyla. E.B. Lewis was the very first who observed this phenomenon within the Drosophila BX-C gene complex [1]. Lewis noticed that a class of genes (later denoted as Hox genes) are situated in an ordered sequence (Hox1, Hox2, Hox3 . . . ) along the path three to five on the genome DNA. These genes are expressed in the same order in the embryo along the Anterior/Posterior axis. This typical order inside the chromosome and the embryo is called spatial collinearity (SC) [1,2]. SC can be a strange property correlating entities at the macroscopic scale in the embryo (from the order of 1 mm) and also the microscopic scale of the chromosome (on the order of 500 nm). This multiscale correlation (extending to about 4 orders of magnitude) is characteristicCopyright: 2021 by the author. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.
