HOXC4 belongs to the homeobox family of genes. The homeobox genes encode a highly conserved family of transcription factors that play an important role in morphogenesis in all multicellular organisms. Mammals possess four similar homeobox gene clusters, HOXA, HOXB, HOXC and HOXD, located on different chromosomes, consisting of 9 to 11 genes arranged in tandem. This gene is one of several homeobox HOXC genes located in a cluster on chromosome 12. Three genes, HOXC5, HOXC4 and HOXC6, are co-transcribed in a primary transcript. Subsequent processing results in gene-specific transcripts, which sometimes share a 5' non-coding exon.1) Schaffer, A., et al., (2003) J. Biol. Chem. 278 (25), 23141-23150.
