The Homeobox Genes of Caenorhabditis elegans and Insights into Their Spatio-Temporal Expression Dynamics during Embryogenesis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 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.

Genome-wide analysis of homeobox gene family in legumes: identification, gene duplication and expression profiling. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 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 ...

Classification and nomenclature of all human homeobox genes
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

NKL homeobox gene activities in normal and malignant myeloid cells.
PLoS ONE, 2019 Recently, we have documented a hematopoietic NKL-code mapping physiological expression patterns of NKL homeobox genes in early hematopoiesis and in lymphopoiesis, which spotlights genes deregulated in lymphoid malignancies.
