The protein product of each Hox gene is a transcription factor. Each Hox gene contains a well-conserved DNA sequence known as the homeobox, of which the term "Hox" was originally a contraction. However, in current usage the term Hox is no longer equivalent to homeobox, because Hox genes are not the only genes to possess a homeobox sequence; for ...
This can range from segmentation in Drosophila to central nervous system (CNS) development in vertebrates. [6] Both Hox and ParaHox are grouped as HOX-Like (HOXL) genes, a subset of the ANTP class (named after the Drosophila gene, Antennapedia). [7] They also include the MADS-box-containing genes involved in the ABC model of flower development. [8]
The homeotic selector genes were discovered through the genetic analysis of Drosophila over 80 years ago [citation needed].Unusual disturbances were found in the organization of the adult fly, resulting in misplaced limbs, such as legs developing where antennae usually develop or an extra pair of wings developing where halteres should be.

HOXB6 gene is only expressed in erythroid progenitor cells, which are the precursor to red blood cells used for transport of oxygen and carbon dioxide throughout the body. During development, the formation of the HOX gene factor happens in the first stages of fetal development , namely soon after the establishment of the mesoderm , which is the ...
Homeobox protein Hox-A7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HOXA7 gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] In vertebrates, the genes encoding the class of transcription factors called homeobox genes are found in clusters named A, B, C, and D on four separate chromosomes.
[3] [4] [2] Homeodomain proteins regulate gene expression and cell differentiation during early embryonic development, thus mutations in homeobox genes can cause developmental disorders. [ 5 ] Homeosis is a term coined by William Bateson to describe the outright replacement of a discrete body part with another body part, e.g. antennapedia ...
