Abstract

Neural crest cells are an important cell type present in all vertebrates, and elaboration of the neural crest is thought to have been a key factor in their evolutionary success. Genomic comparisons suggest there were two major genome duplications in early vertebrate evolution, raising the possibility that evolution of neural crest was facilitated by gene duplications. Here, we review the process of early neural crest formation and its underlying gene regulatory network (GRN) as well as the evolution of important neural crest derivatives. In this context, we assess the likelihood that gene and genome duplications capacitated neural crest evolution, particularly in light of novel data arising from invertebrate chordates.
