The Homeobox Only Protein Homeobox (HOPX) and Colorectal Cancer [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2013 The HOP (homeobox only protein) homeobox (HOPX) is most closely related to the homeobox protein that contains a homeobox-like domain but lacks certain conserved residues required for DNA binding. Here, we review the current understanding of HOPX in the progression of colorectal cancer (CRC).

Homeobox Genes and Hepatocellular Carcinoma [PDF]
Cancers, 2019 Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the sixth most common type of cancer, and is the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths each year. It involves a multi-step progression and is strongly associated with chronic inflammation induced by the intake of environmental toxins and/or viral infections (i.e., hepatitis B and C viruses).

Classification and nomenclature of all human homeobox genes [PDF]
BMC Biology, 2007 Background The homeobox genes are a large and diverse group of genes, many of which play important roles in the embryonic development of animals. Increasingly, homeobox genes are being compared between genomes in an attempt to understand the evolution of

The role of homeobox gene in leukaemia [PDF]
, 2013 This thesis was submitted for the degree of Master of Philosophy and was awarded by Brunel UniversityHomeobox genes are known to be active during development and they are turned off after the early stages of developmental life.

A Pentaradial and Bilateral Combined Photoreception System in the Sea Cucumber is Mediated by a Blue Light-Sensitive R-Opsin. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)The sea cucumber Holothuria leucospilota detects blue and adjacent wavelengths of light via an r‐opsin with a maximum absorption at 459 nm. In the oral tentacles, papillae, and tube feet, distinct light‐sensing structures with specialized morphologies are formed, constituting a unique pentaradial and bilateral combined photoreception system.

A sister of NANOG regulates genes expressed in pre-implantation human development [PDF]
Open Biology, 2017 The NANOG homeobox gene plays a pivotal role in self-renewal and maintenance of pluripotency in human, mouse and other vertebrate embryonic stem cells, and in pluripotent cells of the blastocyst inner cell mass.

The origin of the Hox and ParaHox loci and animal homeobox evolution [PDF]
, 2015 The homeobox superfamily is one of the most significant gene families in the evolution of developmental processes in animals. Within this superfamily the ANTP class has expanded exclusively in animals and, therefore, the reconstruction of its origin ...

The Role of NKL Homeobox Genes in T-Cell Malignancies
Biomedicines, 2021 Homeobox genes encode transcription factors controlling basic developmental processes. The homeodomain is encoded by the homeobox and mediates sequence-specific DNA binding and interaction with cofactors, thus operating as a basic regulatory platform ...

Homeobox Is Pivotal for OsWUS Controlling Tiller Development and Female Fertility in Rice
G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016 OsWUS has recently been shown to be a transcription factor gene critical for tiller development and fertility in rice. The OsWUS protein consists of three conserved structural domains, but their biological functions are still unclear. We discovered a new
