Hox genes, a subset of homeobox genes, are a group of related genes that specify regions of the body plan of an embryo along the head-tail axis of animals. Hox proteins encode and specify the characteristics of 'position', ensuring that the correct structures form in …

同源异型基因（英语：homeotic genes）是生物体中一类专门调控生物形体的基因，一旦这些基因发生突变，就会使身体的一部分变形。其作用机制，主要是调控其他有关于细胞分裂、纺锤体方向，以及硬毛、附肢等部位发育的基因。

同源异形基因（英語： Hox genes ）是生物體中一類專門調控生物形體的基因，一旦這些基因發生突變，就會使身體的一部分變形。 其作用機制，主要是調控其他有關於 細胞分裂 、 紡錘體 方向，以及硬毛、 附肢 等部位 發育 的基因。

Hox基因（英语：Hox genes）全名同源基因（英语：homeotic genes）或同源异型基因。 是生物体中一类专门调控生物形体的基因，一旦这些基因发生突变，就会使身体的一部分变形。

2024年11月20日 · We analyse HOX gene expression across cell types during development, finding that neural-crest derivatives unexpectedly retain the anatomical HOX code of their origin while also adopting the...

Hox genes are homeodomain transcription factors that are involved in the control of a number of key processes in metazoan development such as the specification of tissue (including neural) identity, determination of the anterior-posterior body axis, segmentation, as well as appendage and limb formation [24,43,45,59,62,63,64,68,76].

The Hox genes are a set of transcription factor genes that exhibit an unusual property: They provide a glimpse of one way in which gene expression is translated into the many different forms that...

Hox genes encode evolutionarily conserved transcription factors that are essential for the proper development of bilaterian organisms. Hox genes are unique because they are spatially and temporally regulated during development in a manner that is dictated by their tightly linked genomic organization.

HOX genes, a subset of homeobox genes encoding transcription factors that are generally repressed in undifferentiated pluripotent stem cells, emerged here as master regulators of cell identity and cell fate during embryogenesis, and in maintaining this positional identity throughout life as well as specifying various regional properties of ...

2001年1月1日 · The characterization of Hox-like genes from Hydra, sea anemones and jellyfish has revealed that a Hox gene cluster is extremely ancient, having originated even before the divergence of these...
