A murine specific expansion of the Rhox cluster involved in embryonic stem cell biology is under natural selection
BACKGROUND: The rodent specific reproductive homeobox (Rhox) gene cluster on the X chromosome has been reported to contain twelve homeobox-containing genes, Rhox1-12. RESULTS: We have identified a 40 kb genomic region within the Rhox cluster that is duplicated eight times in tandem resulting in the...
