Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - HOXB3 is a homeobox gene, a family of transcription factors that regulate gene expression through a specific DNA-binding domain known as the homeodomain. - It is expressed in a wide range of cell types in the developing brain, including neural crest cells, progenitor cells, and differentiated neurons. - It is involved in the specification of the anterior/posterior axis in the hindbrain. **Pathways and functions:** - Activation of anterior hox genes: HOXB3 is a key factor in the activation of several anterior hox genes, including Hox1, Hox3, and Hox5. - Angiogenesis: HOXB3 is involved in the regulation of blood vessel development, including the formation of the cerebral vasculature. - Cartilage development: HOXB3 is essential for the development of the cartilage layer of the neural tube. - Definitive hemopoiesis: HOXB3 is involved in the development of the definitive haematopoietic tissue in the bone marrow. - Regulation of neurogenesis: HOXB3 is a key regulator of neurogenesis, promoting the proliferation and survival of neural stem cells and the differentiation of neural progenitor cells into various neuronal subtypes. **Clinical significance:** - HOXB3 mutations have been linked to various human diseases, including lissencephaly, a neural tube defect associated with severe intellectual disability. - Understanding the role of HOXB3 in brain development and disease has potential implications for the development of new therapeutic strategies for these conditions.
