Book ·
OSTI ID:110966
The homeobox encodes a 60-amino-acid region, the homeodomain, that binds to DNA in the regulatory regions of downstream target genes, to regulate their expression. This guidebook is both an excellent introduction to homeobox genes and a fine reference book for scientists of developmental biology. Three introductory chapters are followed by the bulk of the book, which contains summary descriptions of >300 homeobox genes, as well as extensive references. 14 refs.
