The genome of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratusErica Sodergren
Science 314:941-52. 2006..This echinoderm genome provides an evolutionary outgroup for the chordates and yields insights into the evolution of deuterostomes...
A gene regulatory network subcircuit drives a dynamic pattern of gene expressionJoel Smith
Division of Biology, 156 29, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA
Science 318:794-7. 2007..GRN circuitry thus controls not only static spatial assignment in development but also dynamic regulatory patterning...
Regulative recovery in the sea urchin embryo and the stabilizing role of fail-safe gene network wiringJoel Smith
Division of Biology 156 29, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 106:18291-6. 2009..Genomically encoded backup control circuitry thus provides the mechanism underlying a specific example of the regulative development for which the sea urchin embryo has long been famous...

A protocol describing the principles of cis-regulatory analysis in the sea urchinJoel Smith
Division of Biology, California Institute of Technology, 1200 E California Boulevard, Pasadena, California 91125, USA
Nat Protoc 3:710-8. 2008..Although the expected time line varies greatly with the depth of information required, results may be obtained in as little as 4-6 months, but more detailed analyses will require several years to complete...
A new method, using cis-regulatory control, for blocking embryonic gene expressionJoel Smith
Division of Biology 156 29, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA
Dev Biol 318:360-5. 2008..This method thus provides the opportunity to study regulatory requirements of skeletogenesis after ingression, and may be similarly useful in many other developmental contexts...
Gene regulatory network subcircuit controlling a dynamic spatial pattern of signaling in the sea urchin embryoJoel Smith
Division of Biology 156 29, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 105:20089-94. 2008..Thus the specific cis-regulatory linkages of the gene regulatory network encode the coordinated spatial expression of Wnt and Notch signaling as they sweep outward across the vegetal plate of the embryo...
