...With the introduction of this research technique, the argument that changes in development are ultimately attributable to the regulation of gene expression is becoming stronger. In particular, W. Gehring and others have recently been isolating genes that determine the formation of macroscopic morphology, such as the division of animal bodies into segments and the anterior-posterior axis, and have been determining their base sequences. This has led to increased research into the pursuit of substances that are the cause of changes in the shape of organisms during development, something that our predecessors once dreamed of. Developmental biology has also greatly developed important research methods unique to developmental biology. ... *Some of the terminology references "Gehring, W." are listed below.

…この研究技術の導入によって,発生の変化は窮極的には遺伝子の発現の調節に帰せられるものであるという論拠はますます強固になりつつある。とくに最近では,ゲーリングW.Gehringらによって動物の体の体節区分とか前後軸といったような巨視的な形態の成立をきめる遺伝子が次々と単離され,その塩基配列の決定も行われていて,先人がかつて夢みてきた,発生における生物の形の変化の原因を物質に求める方向への研究は,盛んになってきたのである。 発生学は,発生学に固有の重要な研究方法もおおいに開発してきた。… ※「Gehring,W.」について言及している用語解説の一部を掲載しています。 出典|株式会社平凡社世界大百科事典 第2版について | 情報 |
