The homeobox is a semiconserved DNA sequence of 180 nucleotides found within the coding region of many eukaryotic genes, which constitute a multigene family of homeobox genes or homeogenes. The sequence encodes a protein motif of 60 amino acids-the homeodomain, which forms part of a homeodomain protein or homeoprotein. 3, record 2, English, - homeoprotein

Les différentes combinaisons d'homéoprotéines aboutiraient à l'expression des protéines spécifiques responsables des différenciations des cellules, en fonction de leurs positions. C'est à travers le contrôle de l'expression de gènes que les protéines homéotiques peuvent diriger la morphogenèse. 3, record 2, French, - prot%C3%A9ine%20hom%C3%A9otique
