Deuterostome Ancestors and Chordate Origins.
Swalla BJ. Swalla BJ. Integr Comp Biol. 2024 Nov 21;64(5):1175-1181. doi: 10.1093/icb/icae134. Integr Comp Biol. 2024. PMID: 39104213 Free article. Review.
Hemichordates and echinoderms are sister groups and are critical for understanding the deuterostome ancestor and the origin and evolution of the chordates within the deuterostomes. ...Two extant groups, echinoderms and tunicates, have evolved highly derived body pla …

The deuterostome ancestor.
Gerhart J. Gerhart J. J Cell Physiol. 2006 Dec;209(3):677-85. doi: 10.1002/jcp.20803. J Cell Physiol. 2006. PMID: 17001683 Review.
Hemichordates, the phylum of bilateral animals closest to chordates, can illuminate the evolutionary origins of various chordate traits to determine whether these were already present in a shared ancestor (the deuterostome ancestor) or were evolved within the chordate line …

Molecular insights into deuterostome evolution from hemichordate developmental biology.
Lowe CJ. Lowe CJ. Curr Top Dev Biol. 2021;141:75-117. doi: 10.1016/bs.ctdb.2020.12.002. Epub 2021 Jan 21. Curr Top Dev Biol. 2021. PMID: 33602496 Review.
Hemichordates, along with echinoderms and chordates, belong to the lineage of bilaterians called the deuterostomes. Their phylogenetic position as an outgroup to chordates provides an opportunity to investigate the evolutionary origins of the chordate body plan and reconst …

The deuterostome context of chordate origins.
Lowe CJ, Clarke DN, Medeiros DM, Rokhsar DS, Gerhart J. Lowe CJ, et al. Nature. 2015 Apr 23;520(7548):456-65. doi: 10.1038/nature14434. Nature. 2015. PMID: 25903627 Review.
Our understanding of vertebrate origins is powerfully informed by comparative morphology, embryology and genomics of chordates, hemichordates and echinoderms, which together make up the deuterostome clade. Striking body-plan differences among these phyla have historically …

Ambulacrarians and the Ancestry of Deuterostome Nervous Systems.
Formery L, Schubert M, Croce JC. Formery L, et al. Results Probl Cell Differ. 2019;68:31-59. doi: 10.1007/978-3-030-23459-1_3. Results Probl Cell Differ. 2019. PMID: 31598852 Review.
This has been a particularly difficult issue to resolve within the deuterostomes, chiefly due to the distinct neural architectures observed within this group of animals. ...These analyses have led to the elaboration of diverse theories about the origin and evolutionary his …

Evolution of basal deuterostome nervous systems.
Holland LZ. Holland LZ. J Exp Biol. 2015 Feb 15;218(Pt 4):637-45. doi: 10.1242/jeb.109108. J Exp Biol. 2015. PMID: 25696827 Review.
Understanding the evolution of deuterostome nervous systems has been complicated by the by the ambiguous phylogenetic position of the Xenocoelomorpha (Xenoturbellids, acoel flat worms, nemertodermatids), which has been placed either as basal bilaterians, basal deuterost …

Cold Spring Harbor (NY): Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press; 2022. Chapter 27. PMID: 35536968 Free Books & Documents. Review.
This chapter discusses some general features of glycosylation and glycan-binding interactions in a few examples of species that belong to the deuterostome lineage, with particular emphasis on sea urchins, frogs, zebrafish, and mice. ...

Is the deuterostome clade an artifact?
Serra Silva A, Natsidis P, Piovani L, Kapli P, Telford MJ. Serra Silva A, et al. Curr Biol. 2025 Aug 4;35(15):3611-3623.e3. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2025.06.045. Epub 2025 Jul 11. Curr Biol. 2025. PMID: 40651466 Free article.
Recent analyses have questioned the support for the monophyly of Deuterostomia, however, showing that the branch leading to deuterostomes is very short and may be influenced by systematic error. Here, we use a site-by-site approach to explore possible sources of error. ... …

Transcription Factors of the Alx Family: Evolutionarily Conserved Regulators of Deuterostome Skeletogenesis.
Khor JM, Ettensohn CA. Khor JM, et al. Front Genet. 2020 Nov 23;11:569314. doi: 10.3389/fgene.2020.569314. eCollection 2020. Front Genet. 2020. PMID: 33329706 Free PMC article. Review.
Phylogenetic and comparative genomic studies have revealed complex patterns of alx gene duplications during deuterostome evolution. Remarkably, alx genes have been implicated in skeletogenesis in both echinoderms and vertebrates. In this review, we provide an overview of c …
