HOXA7 - homeobox A7 Gene
Also Known as ANTP; HOX1; HOX1A; HOX1.1
Species: Homo sapiens
About HOXA7
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 169 orthologues and 42 paralogues. Broad expression in kidney (RPKM 9.4), adrenal (RPKM 7.6) and 14 other tissues.
Summary
In vertebrates, the genes encoding the class of transcription factors called homeobox genes are found in clusters named A, B, C, and D on four separate chromosomes. Expression of these proteins is spatially and temporally regulated during embryonic development. This gene is part of the A cluster on chromosome 7 and encodes a DNA-binding transcription factor which may regulate gene expression, morphogenesis, and differentiation. For example, the encoded protein represses the transcription of differentiation-specific genes during keratinocyte proliferation, but this repression is then overcome by differentiation signals. This gene is highly similar to the antennapedia (Antp) gene of Drosophila. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
