Fair Labor Standards Act - FLSA. A maintenance worker is hired to work 35 hours at $15/hr. At $525/week, he passes the salary test (his income is greater than $455/week) but, as he cannot exercise discretion or independent judgment and is directly supervised, he is classified as a non-exempt employee.
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.
The Hox genes are a set of transcription factor genes that exhibit an unusual property: They provide a glimpse of one way in which gene expression is translated into the many different forms that animals (metazoans) exhibit.he Hox genes are early actors in the cascade of interactions that enable the development of morphologically distinct regions in a segmented animal. Indeed, the activation of a Hox gene from the 3' end is one of the earliest triggers that lead the segment to develop into part of the head.
