Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - HOXC6 is a homeobox gene, which are a family of transcription factors that are responsible for establishing and maintaining tissue identity. - It is expressed in a wide variety of cell types, including mesangial cells, hematopoietic stem cells, kidney proximal straight tubule epithelial cells, and more. - It is a key regulator of the A/P axis, which is responsible for determining the identity of the body's front and back. - It is involved in the regulation of the development of the cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal systems. **Pathways and functions:** - HOXC6 is a key regulator of the A/P axis. - It is required for the specification of the anterior (A) side of the embryo. - It is also required for the specification of the posterior (P) side of the embryo. - HOXC6 is a key regulator of the development of the cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal systems. - It is expressed in the mesoderm, which is responsible for the formation of these systems. - HOXC6 binds to DNA sequences in the promoters of genes involved in the development of the cardiovascular, respiratory, and renal systems. - This binding helps to regulate the expression of these genes and to ensure that they are expressed in the right cells at the right times. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in the HOXC6 gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including heart defects, kidney defects, and lung defects. - HOXC6 is a promising target for the treatment of these diseases. - By understanding the role of HOXC6 in development, it may be possible to develop new treatments for these diseases.
