HOX Gene Promoter Prediction and Inter-genomic Comparison: An Evo-Devo Study

Homeobox genes direct the anterior-posterior axis of the body plan in eukaryotic organisms. Promoter regions upstream of the Hox genes jumpstart the transcription process. CpG islands found within the promoter regions can cause silencing of these promoters. The locations of the promoter...
