It plays a significant role in regulating gene expression during embryonic development. HOXA4 has a molecular mass of approximately 33 kDa. It expresses widely in various tissues with particularly high expression noted in the anterior part of the spinal cord during early development. Being a member of the homeobox cluster on chromosome 7 HOXA4 shares functional similarities with other HOX proteins.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nHOXA4 influences the patterning of body structures during embryonic development. It functions as part of the larger HOX gene network which coordinates timing and localization in the development of the cranial-caudal axis. This gene network is highly conserved across mammals and helps in the formation of specific tissues including thoracic vertebrae. As part of this complex HOXA4 maintains precise regulation of downstream targets essential for morphogenesis.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nHOXA4 plays an integral role in the developmental signaling pathway specifically the Wnt signaling pathway. This pathway is important for regulating cellular processes like cell fate determination proliferation and migration. Within the pathway HOXA4 interacts with other HOX proteins such as HOXC9 to modulate the expression of genes that guide embryonic segmentation and differentiation. Coordination of these developmental pathways ensures proper formation of anterior skeletal structures in vertebrates.\u003cbr\u003e\nHOXA4 associations include congenital malformations and certain cancers. Abnormal expression of HOXA4 links to developmental disorders such as vertebral defects where misregulated HOX gene activity leads to skeletal anomalies. Additionally overexpression of HOXA4 has been implicated in the proliferation of tumor cells in certain cancers such as leukemia. In these contexts interactions with other proteins like HOXB4 may influence disease progression and chemoresistance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46854173360297,"sku":"ab131049","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab131049","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
