✦ Synopsis
Homeobox-containing genes comprise a gene family coding for transcription factors involved in normal development. Class I human homeobox (HOX) genes display a peculiar chromosomal organization, perhaps directly related to their function. Aberrant expression of homeobox genes has been associated with both morphological abnormalities and oncogenesis. We have reported that HOX gene expression is (i) specific for normal
