Fusion Gene KMT2A::SEPTIN6 in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Cell Line KOPM-88 [PDF]
(1) Background: KMT2A (alias MLL) is located at chromosome 11q23 and encodes histone methyltransferase 2A which activates target genes via chromatin methylation of histone H3 lysine K4.

Genome-Wide Analysis of Homeobox Gene Family in Legumes: Identification, Gene Duplication and Expression Profiling [PDF]
Homeobox genes encode transcription factors that are known to play a major role in different aspects of plant growth and development. In the present study, we identified homeobox genes belonging to 14 different classes in five legume species, including ...

The Homeobox Genes of Caenorhabditis elegans and Insights into Their Spatio-Temporal Expression Dynamics during Embryogenesis [PDF]
Homeobox genes play crucial roles for the development of multicellular eukaryotes. We have generated a revised list of all homeobox genes for Caenorhabditis elegans and provide a nomenclature for the previously unnamed ones.

Identification of Novel Genetic Variants Related to Trabecular Bone Score in Community-Dwelling Older Adults [PDF]
Background As the genetic variants of trabecular bone microarchitecture are not well-understood, we performed a genome-wide association study to identify genetic determinants of bone microarchitecture analyzed by trabecular bone score (TBS).

Genetic Regulation of Vertebrate Forebrain Development by Homeobox Genes
Forebrain development in vertebrates is regulated by transcription factors encoded by homeobox, bHLH and forkhead gene families throughout the progressive and overlapping stages of neural induction and patterning, regional specification and generation of

HOXA Amplification Defines a Genetically Distinct Subset of Angiosarcomas
Angiosarcoma is a rare, devastating malignancy with few curative options for disseminated disease. We analyzed a recently published genomic data set of 48 angiosarcomas and noticed recurrent amplifications of HOXA-cluster genes in 33% of patients.
