Abstract


The Hox gene clusters of gnathostomes have a strong tendency to exclude repetitive DNA elements. In contrast, no such trend can be found in the Hox gene clusters of protostomes. Repeats ``invade'' the gnathostome Hox clusters from the 5' and 3' ends while the core of the clusters remains virtually free of repetitive DNA.
