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.
