Background: HOXB13 is a novel member of the AbdB subfamily of vertebrate HOX genes which are clustered in 4 unlinked complexes in the genome (HOXA, HOXB, HOXC, and HOXD clusters) which each span about 200 kb and contains 9 to 11 genes, transcribed from the same strand of DNA. The order of the HOX genes along the chromosome correlates with their expression along the anterior/posterior axis of the embryo and suggests that their organization is integral to their proper regulation. Members of the Abdominal B (AbdB) subfamily of homeobox genes exhibit posterior domains of expression, including the developing urogenital system, in vertebrates. Several HOXB genes have been described in humans and other mammals though it was thought that HOXB genes 10 through 13 had been lost in evolution until HOXB13 was discovered.
