A subgroup of homeobox genes, which play an important role in the
developmental processes of a variety of multicellular organisms,
Hox genes have been shown to play a critical role in vertebrate
pattern formation. Hox genes can be thought of as general purpose
control genes that is, they are similar in many organisms and
direct the same processes in a variety of organisms, from mouse, to
fly, to human.
* Provides researchers an overview and synthesis of the latest
research findings and contemporary thought in the area.
* Inclusion of chapters that discuss the evolutionary development
of a wide variety of organisms.
* Gives researchers and clinicians insight into how defective Hox
genes trigger developmental abnormalities in embryos.
