High impact information on Hoxc4

  • Neurons induced by beta-catenin overexpression either alone or in association with RA express the caudal neuronal marker Hoxc4 [1].
  • Within the hindbrain, the Hox-3.5 boundary is seen to lie posterior to that of its paralogue, Hox-2.6, by a distance equal to about the length of one rhombomere [2].
  • The murine Hox-3.5 gene has been mapped and linked genomically to a position 18 kb 3' of its most 5' locus neighbour, Hox-3.4, on chromosome 15 [2].
  • Although Hoxc-4 is expressed abundantly in the central nervous system, no obvious defects were observed [3].
  • Hoxc-4 is a mouse homeobox gene located at the 3' end of the HoxC cluster [3].
