Cappechi plans to disrupt several other of the 40 or so
homeobox genes in mice in hopes of elucidating their function.
Control of neural development and function in a thermoregulatory network by the LIM
homeobox gene lin-11.
HOM/HOX
homeobox genes are present in hydra (Chlorohydra viridissima) and are differentially expressed during regeneration.
elegans LIM
homeobox genes leads to another interesting point: the expression of most, if not all of these genes is maintained in neural tissues throughout adulthood.
Identification of a retinoic acid responsive enhancer 3[prime] of the murine
homeobox gene Hox 1.6.
We have chosen to study
homeobox genes in the Anthozoa that we might better understand the ancestral function of these genes in the Cnidaria and in the Eumetazoa.
