Biochem/physiol Actions

HOXD4 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 HOXD genes located at 2q31-2q37 chromosome regions. Deletions that removed the entire HOXD gene cluster or 5′ end of this cluster have been associated with severe limb and genital abnormalities. The protein encoded by this gene may play a role in determining positional values in developing limb buds. Alternatively spliced variants have been described but their full length nature has not been determined.This gene belongs to the homeobox family of genes.

A Morrison et al.
Development (Cambridge, England), 122(6), 1895-1907 (1996-06-01)
Expression of vertebrate Hox genes is regulated by retinoids in cell culture and in early embryonic development. We have identified a 185-bp retinoid-responsive transcriptional enhancer 5' of the human HOXD4 gene, which regulates inducibility of the gene in embryonal carcinoma
M C Moroni et al.
Mechanisms of development, 44(2-3), 139-154 (1993-12-01)
Hox genes are developmentally regulated in mammalian embryogenesis, according to temporally and spatially restricted patterns which are affected by retinoids, vitamin A derivatives which have a function as, or at least mimic the action of, axis-specifying morphogens. In the human
