The Homeobox Genes: Classification, Regulation, Biological Functions, and Diseases
MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2026.Overview of the homeobox gene superfamily and its pathophysiological roles. The homeobox superfamily comprises several major classes, including ANTP, PRD, TALE, LIM, POU, and others. Among these, the HOX clusters (A–D) play critical roles in embryonic development specifically in conferring cellular identity, regulating morphogenesis, and guiding axial ...
