Alternative splicing of the HOX 2.2 homeobox gene in human hematopoietic cells and murine embryonic and adult tissues

The HOX 2.2 homeobox gene is expressed in human hematopoietic cell lines with erythroid features (W.-F. Shen, et al, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 86, 8536-8540, 1989). Both human and murine Hox 2.2 genes contain a single 1 kb intron which interrupts the sequence encoding the proposed homeobox protein. Fou...
