Supplementary info

Activity summary

The HOXB2 protein also known as Homeobox B2 plays an important role in gene regulation during development. This protein belongs to the homeobox family which is characterized by the presence of a 60 amino acid residue helix-turn-helix motif that binds DNA. HOXB2 has a molecular mass of approximately 30 kDa. It is notably expressed in a variety of tissues including the central nervous system and axial skeleton where it contributes to the spatial specificity of cell differentiation.

Biological function summary

HOXB2 influences the patterning of structures along the anterior-posterior axis in embryonic development. It does not function as a solitary protein but operates as part of a larger homeodomain protein complex. This protein participates in the regulation of genes responsible for morphogenesis. Its expression levels directly affect the identity and position of structures like the vertebrates and cranial nerves during early fetal development.

Pathways

HOXB2 integrates its function within the retinoic acid signaling cascade which plays a pivotal role in embryogenesis. It connects with other members of the HOX family creating an orchestrated network of gene regulation that ensures proper spatial development. HOXB2's interaction with retinoic acid receptors enables the transmission of signals that dictate pattern formation and differentiation processes across various tissues.

Associated diseases and disorders

Mutations or misregulation of HOXB2 have implications in congenital malformations and specific cancers such as leukemia. HOXB2 dysregulation in acute myeloid leukemia suggests its involvement in pathways alongside key proteins like HOXA9 and MEIS1. Such connections underline the protein’s influence in maintaining cellular identity and proliferation balance making HOXB2 a potential target for therapeutic strategies in developmental disorders and hematological malignancies.
