HOXB8 is a member of the Antp homeobox family and is a nuclear protein with a homeobox DNA-binding domain. It is included in a cluster of homeobox B genes located on chromosome 17. HOXB8 functions as a sequence-specific transcription factor that is involved in development. Increased expression of this HOXB8 gene is associated with colorectal cancer. Mice that have had the murine ortholog of this gene knocked out exhibit an excessive pathologic grooming behavior. This behavior is similar to the behavior of humans suffering from the obsessive-compulsive spectrum disorder trichotillomania.This gene is a member of the Antp homeobox family and encodes a nuclear protein with a homeobox DNA-binding domain.
