Although Hox genes contain and are originally named because of the homeobox sequence, not all homeobox-containing genes are Hox genes (other examples include the POU genes and CDX genes). The homeobox encodes for a protein sequence called the homeodomain, which is a DNA-binding domain.
Tumor Suppressor Genes. Tumor Suppressor Genes are the âbrakesâ of the cell cycle. The cell's DNA contains the information to produce the proteins that stop in order to check the condition of the cell at these âcheckpointsâ of the cell cycle. Mutations in the DNA may cause these cells to lose their checkpoints.
