Background: |
CDX4 is a member of the 'caudal-related' family of homeobox genes. It is located in the mouse 100 kb distal to Xist and the 2 genes are transcribed convergently. CDX4 is located proximal to XIST in the human, indicating that both CDX4 and XIST are within the region inverted since mammalian divergence. This gene encodes a member of a small subfamily of homeobox containing transcription factors. The encoded protein may regulate homeobox gene expression during anteroposterior patterning and hematopoiesis. |
