Despite the positional cloning of several genes from the critical region, it is still not possible to state whether the phenotype is secondary to haploinsufficiency of one or more than one gene. In embryological studies phenocopies of these abnormalities are produced by a variety of actions which disrupt the contribution made by the cranial and cardiac neural crest to development. The TUPLE1/HIRA gene is related to WD40 domain transcriptional regulators and maps within the DiGeorge critical region. We have cloned the chick homologue of HIRA and conducted in situ expression analysis in early chick embryos. Hira is expressed in the developing neural plate, the neural tube, neural crest and the mesenchyme of the head and branchial arch structures. HIRA may therefore have a role in the haploinsufficiency syndromes caused by deletion of 22q11.","is_dataset_classified":null,"base_score":4.189654742026425,"endowment":4.189654742026425,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"9063744","pmcid":null,"openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W2167525400","authors":[],"funders":[],"total_grants":0,"fwci":1.7729,"citation_percentile":0.85824412,"influential_citations":0,"citation_trend":[{"year":2012,"count":2},{"year":2013,"count":1},{"year":2015,"count":1},{"year":2016,"count":1},{"year":2018,"count":1},{"year":2019,"count":1},{"year":2020,"count":1},{"year":2022,"count":2},{"year":2025,"count":2}],"oa_status":"bronze","license":null,"oa_locations":[{"url":"https://academic.oup.com/hmg/article-pdf/6/2/237/9465294/6-2-237.pdf","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://academic.oup.com/hmg/article-pdf/6/2/237/9465294/6-2-237.pdf","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1093/hmg/6.2.237","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/9063744","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/118619/","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"http://hmg.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/short/6/2/237","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://ora.ox.ac.uk/objects/uuid:725eff18-11cb-4f88-947c-22058bfe51a3","host_type":"repository"}],"fields_of_study":["Congenital heart defects research","Animal Genetics and Reproduction","Amino Acid Sequence","Animals","Base Sequence","Cell Cycle Proteins","Chick Embryo","Cloning, Molecular","DNA, Complementary","DiGeorge Syndrome","Gene Expression","Histone Chaperones","Humans","Molecular Sequence Data","Nuclear Proteins","Sequence Homology, Amino Acid","Transcription Factors"],"mesh_terms":["Amino Acid Sequence","Animals","Base Sequence","Chick Embryo","Cloning, Molecular","DiGeorge Syndrome","Humans","Molecular Sequence Data","Nuclear Proteins","Transcription Factors","Gene Expression","Sequence Homology, Amino Acid","DNA, Complementary","Cell Cycle Proteins","Histone Chaperones"],"keywords":["Haploinsufficiency","DiGeorge syndrome","Biology","Neural crest","Genetics","Neural tube","Gene","Cloning (programming)","Phenotype","Positional cloning","Chromosome","Embryo"],"sdg_mappings":[{"sdg_number":0,"sdg_label":"Good health and well-being"}],"linked_datasets":[],"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"database_accessions":[],"source":"live","citation_network_status":"fetched"},"created_at":"2026-07-29T13:05:40.426279Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
