Target Information
| Target Symbol | SOX2 |
|---|---|
| Target Name | Transcription factor SOX-2 |
| UniProt ID | P48431 |
| Cellular Localization | Nucleus. |
| Function | Transcription factor that forms a trimeric complex with OCT4 on DNA and controls the expression of a number of genes involved in embryonic development such as YES1, FGF4, UTF1 and ZFP26 (By similarity). Critical for early embryogenesis and for embryonic stem cell pluripotency. |
| Involvement in Disease | Defects in SOX2 are the cause of microphthalmia syndromic type 3 (MCOPS3). Microphthalmia is a clinically heterogeneous disorder of eye formation, ranging from small size of a single eye to complete bilateral absence of ocular tissues (anophthalmia). In many cases, microphthalmia/anophthalmia occurs in association with syndromes that include non-ocular abnormalities. MCOPS3 is characterized by the rare association of malformations including uni- or bilateral anophthalmia or microphthalmia, and esophageal atresia with trachoesophageal fistula. |
| Post-translational Modifications | Sumoylation inhibits binding on DNA and negatively regulates the FGF4 transactivation. |
| Sequence Similarities | Contains 1 HMG box DNA-binding domain. |
