Background: HOXB13

HOXB13 is a novel member of the AbdB subfamily of vertebrate HOX genes which are clustered in 4 unlinked complexes in the genome (HOXA, HOXB, HOXC, and HOXD clusters) which each span about 200 kb and contains 9 to 11 genes, transcribed from the same strand of DNA. The order of the HOX genes along the chromosome correlates with their expression along the anterior/posterior axis of the embryo and suggests that their organization is integral to their proper regulation. Members of the Abdominal B (AbdB) subfamily of homeobox genes exhibit posterior domains of expression, including the developing urogenital system, in vertebrates. Several HOXB genes have been described in humans and other mammals though it was thought that HOXB genes 10 through 13 had been lost in evolution until HOXB13 was discovered. HOXB13 gene contains 2 exons and encodes a 284-amino acid protein, 2 residues shorter than the mouse protein. It is separated from HOXB9 by 70 kb but is transcribed in the same orientation as the other HOXB genes. The 60-amino acid homeodomain, located near the C terminus of the protein, demonstrated 78 to 83% identity with HOX proteins in paralog group 13 of the AbdB subfamily; 6 of the amino acid differences from other member of this group represented conservative changes. HOXB13 had less than 60% identity to other AbdB-related genes. Mouse Hoxb13 is expressed first in the tailbud of embryonic mice and subsequently in the hindgut, urogenital tract, and the posterior extent of the spinal cord. It is not expressed in the secondary axes. During the first 2 trimesters of development, wound healing occurs without scars. Two homeobox genes, PRX2 and HOXB13, are differentially expressed during fetal versus adult wound healing. Both genes are expressed in proliferating fibroblasts and fetal dermis, but not in adult dermis. The HOXB13 gene has been mapped to human chromosome 17q21.2, where other HOXB genes are clustered, whilst the mouse Hoxb13 gene mapped to chromosome 11.
