Common functions of central and posterior Hox genes for the repression of head in the trunk of Drosophila.

Development (Cambridge, England) - 1 Jan 2008

Coiffier Delphine, Charroux Bernard, Kerridge Stephen

Abstract excerpt

Hox genes are localised in complexes, encode conserved homeodomain transcription factors and have mostly been studied for their specialised functions: the formation of distinct structures along the anteroposterior axis. They probably derived via duplication followed by divergence, from a unique gene, suggesting that Hox genes may have retained a common function. The comparison of their homeodomain sequences...
