Here at last was a smoking gun that could link the diverse metazoan sex determination systems (Figure 1).
Extensive BLAST and PSI-BLAST searches of the public databases failed to recover any sequences with significant similarity to the Runt domain from non-metazoan organisms with completed or nearly completed genomes, suggesting that Runx genes may be a metazoan invention.
Clustering of CNCSs has also been recently reported in the worm genome [ 47], and future research will determine if CNCS clustering is a general feature of non-coding conservation in metazoan genomes.
Experimental studies of invertebrates that contain only a single Runx gene (sea urchin, tunicate, and nematode) are therefore likely to highlight primitive (general) functions of this family of transcription factors in the control of cell fate, proliferation, and differentiation during metazoan development.
Circadian clocks located within metazoan brains have been a focus of investigation for decades [ 1 2 3 4 ] . Such clocks are compelling in part because they influence timing across many levels of analysis; they are driven by molecular elements whose concerted output, in the form of neuronal signaling, controls physiology and behavior [ 5 ] . Recently, the presence of circadian clocks in peripheral tissues has been established in the fruitfly as well as in lower vertebrates and mammals [ 6 7 8 9 ] . For example, in
