HOXA7 - Hoxa7 homeobox A7 Gene

Also known as Hoxa9; Hox1r5

About HOXA7

Summary

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cell-matrix adhesion; negative regulation of monocyte differentiation; and regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic skeletal system morphogenesis; negative regulation of keratinocyte differentiation; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nuclear membrane and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human HOXA7 (homeobox A7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
