The C. elegans LIM homeobox gene lin-11 specifies multiple cell fates during vulval development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
LIM homeobox family members regulate a variety of cell fate choices during animal development. In C. elegans, mutations in the LIM homeobox gene lin-11 have previously been shown to alter the cell division pattern of a subset of the 2° lineage vulval ...

Homeobox oncogene activation by pan-cancer DNA hypermethylation

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2018
Cancers have long been recognized to be not only genetically but also epigenetically distinct from their tissues of origin. Although genetic alterations underlying oncogene upregulation have been well studied, to what extent epigenetic mechanisms, such ...

On a model mechanism for the spatial patterning of teeth primordia in the Alligator [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
We propose a model mechanism for the initiation and spatial positioning of teeth primordia in the alligator,Alligator mississippiensis. Detailed embryological studies by Westergaard & Ferguson (1986, 1987, 1990) show that jaw growth plays a crucial role ...

The T-cell oncogenic protein HOX11 activates Aldh1 expression in NIH 3T3 cells but represses its expression in mouse spleen development [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Hox11 is a homeobox gene essential for spleen formation in mice, since atrophy of the anlage of a developing spleen occurs in early embryonic development in Hox11 null mice.

Characterization and target genes of nine human PRD-like homeobox domain genes expressed exclusively in early embryos

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
PAIRED (PRD)-like homeobox genes belong to a class of predicted transcription factor genes. Several of these PRD-like homeobox genes have been predicted in silico from genomic sequence but until recently had no evidence of transcript expression. We found

Modelling the evolution of transcription factor binding preferences in complex eukaryotes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Transcription factors (TFs) exert their regulatory action by binding to DNA with specific sequence preferences. However, different TFs can partially share their binding sequences due to their common evolutionary origin.

ERN1 dependent impact of glucose and glutamine deprivations on PBX3, PBXIP1, PAX6, MEIS1, and MEIS2 genes expression in U87 glioma cells

open access: yesEndocrine Regulations, 2023
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 ...

Genome-wide identification and expression analyses of the homeobox transcription factor family during ovule development in seedless and seeded grapes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Seedless grapes are of considerable importance for the raisin and table grape industries. Previous transcriptome analyses of seed development in grape revealed that genes encoding homeobox transcription factors were differentially regulated in seedless ...

Optimal activation of an endogenous gene by HOX11 requires the NH 2- terminal 50 amine acids [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The HOX11 homeobox gene was first identified through studies of the t(7;10) and t(10;14) chromosomal translocations of acute T-cell leukemia. In addition, analysis of Hox11(-/-) mice has demonstrated a critical role for this gene in murine spleen ...

Thyroid-specific transcription factors control Hex promoter activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The homeobox-containing gene Hex is expressed in several cell types, including thyroid follicular cells, in which it regulates the transcription of tissue-specific genes. In this study the regulation of Hex promoter activity was investigated.
