Gene Information

human ... HOXA9(3205)

General description

HOXA9 is a transcription factor with a central role in both haemopoiesis and leukaemia. High levels of HOXA9 expression in haemopoietic cells is a characteristic feature of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), and may be sufficient to cause this disease. Overexpression of Hoxa-9 markedly expands hematopoietic stem cells. HOXA9 expression changes dramatically with age - a uniformly low level of expression during early adulthood is replaced by a frequently very high expression in adults over sixty.

Specificity

Based on a BLAST search, the antibody will likely cross react with Newt, Coelacanth, Dog, Chicken, and Rat Hox A9; Antelope, Mouse and Guinea Pig Hox 1.7; Frog, human and Zebrafish Hox A-9B; and Kenyan Clawed Frog Hox B.1

The genes encoding Hoxa9 and Meis1 are transcriptionally coactivated in a subset of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in mice. In marrow reconstitution experiments, coexpression of both genes produces rapid AML, while neither gene alone generates overt leukemia. Although Hoxa9 and

HOXA9 is often highly expressed in leukemias. However, its precise roles in leukemogenesis remain elusive. Here, we show that HOXA9 maintains gene expression for multiple anti-apoptotic pathways to promote leukemogenesis. In MLL fusion-mediated leukemia, MLL fusion directly activates the expression
Leukemic fusion genes MLL/AF4 and AML1/MTG8 support leukemic self-renewal by controlling expression of the telomerase subunit TERT.
