Ancient homeobox gene loss and the evolution of chordate brain and pharynx development: deductions from amphioxus gene expression.
Homeobox genes encode a large superclass of transcription factors with widespread roles in animal development. Within chordates there are over 100 homeobox genes in the invertebrate cephalochordate amphioxus and over 200 in humans. Set against this general trend of increasing gene number in vertebra...
