Abstract
Hox genes are well known for their evolutionarily conserved role in patterning the body axis. Now, Young et al. in this issue of Developmental Cell present evidence that at least in mouse embryos Hox genes do more, namely controlling the process of axis formation itself.
摘要
Hox基因因其在身体轴模式形成中具有进化保守作用而广为人知。如今，杨等人在本期《发育细胞》上发表的证据表明，至少在小鼠胚胎中，Hox基因还有更多功能，即控制轴形成过程本身。
