HOX and MADS box genes have all of the following in common except
A)they evolved recently.
B)they encode transcription factors.
C)they influence when and where other genes are expressed.
D)their products have DNA-binding motifs.
E)they are highly conserved.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

HOX and MADS box genes are both important families of regulatory genes that encode transcription factors with DNA-binding motifs. They are highly conserved across different species, and they play key roles in regulating the expression of other genes. However, there is no evidence to suggest that they evolved recently.
