Other Information

**Key characteristics** * HOXB1 is a homeobox gene, which are a group of genes that are involved in the early development of the head and brain. * It is expressed in a pattern that is characteristic of facial and upper lip development. * It is involved in the specification of the facial phenotype, including the formation of the nasal pits, eyes, and mouth. * It is a key transcription factor in the regulation of hox gene expression. * It is expressed in a pattern that is consistent with the development of the facial and upper lip regions. **Pathways and functions** HOXB1 is involved in a number of pathways and functions, including: * Activation of anterior hox genes in hindbrain development during early embryogenesis. * Activation of hox genes during differentiation. * Anterior/posterior pattern specification. * Developmental biology. * Rombomere 4 development. * Rhombomere 5 development. **Clinical significance** HOXB1 mutations are associated with a number of human diseases, including: * Craniosynostosis, which is a condition in which the face is too wide. * Microcephaly, which is a condition in which the brain is smaller than it should be. * Facial malformations, such as those found in Down syndrome. * Eye problems, such as cataracts and glaucoma. HOXB1 is a promising target for the treatment of human diseases that are caused by mutations in this gene.
