description | ChIP-seq is combined with RNA-seq analysis to identify the TBX3 and HAND2 target genes during mouse limb bud development. This analysis identifies the DEGs and direct transcriptional targets of HAND2 and TBX3 during the early determinative period critical to establishment of limb axis polarity and the SHH signaling center in the posterior limb bud mesenchyme. In particular, bioinformatics analysis identifies the target gene networks that are co-regulated by both TBX3 and HAND2 transcription factors in the limb bud mesenchyme. A significant fraction of the target genes identified are required for normal limb bud development and their spatio-temporal expression patterns are changed in mutant limb buds at early stages. This project was supported by SNSF Grant 310030_184734 to Rolf Zeller (project partner: Aimee Zuniga). RNA-seq analysis of a) Hand2-deficient and b) Tbx3-deficient mouse forelimb buds |
