My group has long studied transcriptional gene regulation involved in cell differentiation, employing lens cell differentiation as a model. In this article, our progress over the last quarter of a century in deciphering the principles involved in developmental gene regulation is described, outlining concurrent advancement in relevant branches of developmental biology.
