(3) The ancestral bilaterian Runx gene was apparently assembled from three exons and contained two introns, one within the sequence that encodes the Runt domain, and a second that borders the sequence encoding the C-terminal end of the Runt domain.
Screens of genomic libraries using the Runt domain sequence as probe indicate that the same is also apparently true of the sea urchin S. purpuratus [ 10 ] , although final verification of this awaits the completion of the sea urchin genome.
The results of a phylogenetic analysis of Runt domain sequences are consistent with this hypothesis (see below).
The two newly discovered Drosophila Runx genes both contain a complete open reading frame encoding the Runt domain (Fig.
The same is apparently true for the single sea urchin gene (although this is provisionally based on the fragmentary evidence of a single small BAC clone [ 10 ] ), suggesting that a single exon downstream of the Runt domain may be the primitive condition for bilaterians.
