abstract：:Multiple members of the A, B, and C clusters of Hox genes are expressed in hematopoietic cells. Several of these Hox genes have been found to display distinctive expression patterns, with genes located at the 3' side of the clusters being expressed at their highest levels in the most primitive subpopulation of human C...
