Homeobox protein Hox-B7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HOXB7 gene .[ 5] [ 6]
Function This gene is a member of the Antp homeobox family and encodes a protein with a homeobox DNA-binding domain . It is included in a cluster of homeobox B genes located on chromosome 17 . The encoded nuclear protein functions as a sequence-specific transcription factor that is involved in cell proliferation and differentiation . Increased expression of this gene is associated with some cases of melanoma and ovarian carcinoma .[ 7]
Interactions HOXB7 has been shown to interact with PBX1 [ 8] and CREB-binding protein .[ 9]
