摘要：
Members of the Pbx family are involved in a diverse range of developmental processes including axial patterning and organogenesis. Pbx Functions are in part mediated by the interaction of Pbx proteins with members of the Hox and Meis/Prep families. We have identified a fourth mammalian Pbx family member. Pbx4 in the mouse and PBX4 in humans are located on chromosome 8 and chromosome 19, respectively. Pbx4 expression is confined to the testis, especially to spermatocytes in the pachytene stage of the first meiotic prophase. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
