text: Brachyury, a member of T-box gene family, is widely known for its major role
in mesoderm specification in bilaterians. It is also present in non-bilaterian
metazoans, such as cnidarians, where it acts as a component of an axial patterning
system. In this study, we present a phylogenetic analysis of Brachyury genes within
phylum Cnidaria, investigate differential expression and address a functional
framework of Brachyury paralogs in hydrozoan Dynamena pumila. Our analysis indicates
two duplication events of Brachyury within the cnidarian lineage. The first duplication
likely appeared in the medusozoan ancestor, resulting in two copies in medusozoans,
while the second duplication arose in the hydrozoan ancestor, resulting in three
copies in hydrozoans. Brachyury1 and 2 display a conservative expression pattern
marking the oral pole of the body axis in D. pumila. On the contrary, Brachyury3
expression was detected in scattered presumably nerve cells of the D. pumila larva.
Pharmacological modulations indicated that Brachyury3 is not under regulation
of cWnt signaling in contrast to the other two Brachyury genes. Divergence in
expression patterns and regulation suggest neofunctionalization of Brachyury3
in hydrozoans.
