Abstract:
Recent progress in multiplex cis-regulatory analysis has increased the speed of identifying enhancers and promoters, and enabled efficient incorporation of cis-regulatory information into gene regulatory network models. Three types of barcode reporters have been developed for multiplex reporter assays in sea urchin embryos: 13-tags and 129-tags for QPCR, 130 Nanotags for NanoString, and 100 million N25-tags for next-generation sequencing. In this chapter, to facilitate adoption of high-throughput cis-regulatory analysis in sea urchin embryos, I provide practical guidelines to best utilize barcode reporters that are compatible with either QPCR or next-generation sequencing. I expect that the guidelines are also applicable to other invertebrate embryos.

Reduction of Alkynes to cis-Alkenes: Catalytic Hydrogenation
Like alkenes, alkynes can be reduced to alkanes in the presence of transition metal catalysts such as Pt, Pd, or Ni. The reaction involves two sequential syn additions of hydrogen via a cis-alkene intermediate.
