Hyperconserved Elements in Human 5′UTRs Shape Essential Post-transcriptional Regulatory Networks
Post-transcriptional regulation (PTR) of gene expression is a powerful determinant of cellular phenotypes. The 5′ and 3′ untranslated regions of the mRNA (UTRs) mediate this role through sequence and secondary structure elements bound by RNA-binding ...

Objective. Homeobox genes play a fundamental role in the embryogenesis, but some of them have been linked to oncogenesis. The present study is aimed to investigate the impact of glucose and glutamine deprivations on the expression of homeobox genes such ...

Evolution of the Homeobox Complex in the Diptera [PDF]
The homeobox-complex (HOX-C) programs much of the basic body plan and forms, in most metazoans, one continuous cluster with the order of genes paralleling their order of expression along the body axis [1–5]. Here we compare the HOX-C organization of several Drosophila species and of Anopheles gambiae, a representative of lower Dipterans.

An update on the vertebrate homeobox [PDF]
Given the complexity of development and the multitude of differentiated cell types in higher eukaryotic organisms, one might expect that a large variety of proteins would be required to regulate specific developmental processes. However, if the differentiated state of a particular cell is specified not by a single protein but by a combination of ...

Evaluating the Level of Homeobox B8 and its Association with Cell Lung Cancer Proliferation Downregulation: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis [PDF]
Background and aim: Homeobox family genes have been identified as cancer growth regulators. There is no meta-analysis or comprehensive study on the activity of Homeobox B8 (HOXB8) in lung cancer.
