Preparation and Storage

Background: HOXB13

HOXB13 (Homeobox B13) is a member of the homeobox family of transcription factors with a reported molecular weight of approximately 34 kDa. It is 284 amino acids in length and shares 93% aa identity with mouse and rat HOXB13. HOXB13 plays an important role in prostate cancer. Its expression promotes metastatis of prostate cancers and mutations in HOXB13 are associated with early onset disease. Elevated expression of HOXB13 is also associated with aggressive breast cancers, which may be due in part to its ability to reduce the expression of Estrogen Receptor alpha and increase expression of IL-6.
