    basic FUNCTION
  • putative transcriptional co-repressor
  • is involved in somite segmentation and establishment of rostrocaudal polarity
  • functioning as a segment boundary determination gene during mammalian embryogenesis
  • RIPPLY1, RIPPLY2 are direct regulators of the TBX6 protein level for the establishment of intersomitic boundaries

  • RIPPLY2-MESP2 negative-feedback loop is essential for the periodic generation of the rostro-caudal polarity within a somite
  • RIPPLY2, a target of MESP2, is proposed to be involved in this down-regulation because RIPPLY2 deficiency causes an anterior expansion of the TBX6 domain, resembling the MESP2-null phenotype
  • RIPPLY2 represses TBX6 in a MESP2-independent manner, which contributes to the accurate segmental border formation
