For 10 points, name these genes that control body organization duringdevelopment.
An intergenic, long non-coding RNA that directs PRC2-catalyzed condensation of chromatin, calledHOTAIR, is expressed from the same cluster as these genes. One set of these is activated by TET2-inducedhydroxylation of methylcytosines, and they are also activated by the retinoic acid receptor. In the brain, thesegenes are responsible for the specification of rhombomere identity. In humans there are 4 clusters of 13 ofeach of these arranged collinearly, and they are expressed in the order they are arranged in the cluster. Theybind to a TAAT consensus sequence via a conserved 60-amino acid helix-turn-helix domain. In (*) Drosophila,they are activated by gap and pair-rule genes. Mutations in them cause body segments to appear in the wrongplace or antennae to appear on the head. For 10 points, name these genes that control body organization duringdevelopment.
