HOXD12

Homeobox D12, also known as HOXD12, is a human gene.cite web | title = Entrez Gene: HOXD12 homeobox D12| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=3238| accessdate = ]

This gene belongs to the homeobox family of genes. The homeobox genes encode a highly conserved family of transcription factors that play an important role in morphogenesis in all multicellular organisms. Mammals possess four similar homeobox gene clusters, HOXA, HOXB, HOXC and HOXD, located on different chromosomes, consisting of 9 to 11 genes arranged in tandem. This gene is one of several homeobox HOXD genes located in a cluster on chromosome 2. Deletions that remove the entire HOXD gene cluster or the 5' end of this cluster have been associated with severe limb and genital abnormalities. The product of the mouse Hoxd12 gene plays a role in axial skeleton development and forelimb morphogenesis.cite journal | author = Davis AP, Capecchi MR | title = A mutational analysis of the 5' HoxD genes: dissection of genetic interactions during limb development in the mouse | journal = Development | volume = 122 | issue = 4 | pages = 1175–85 | year = 1996 | month = April | pmid = 8620844 | url = http://dev.biologists.org/cgi/pmidlookup?view=long&pmid=8620844 | issn = ]
