Gene(ID):
Description:
SOX2: SRY (sex determining region Y)-box 2. Entrez Protein NP_003097. It is a member of the SRY-related HMG-box (SOX) family of transcription factors involved in the regulation of embryonic development and in the determination of cell fate. The product of this gene is required for stem-cell maintenance in the central nervous system, and also regulates gene expression in the stomach. Mutations in this gene have been associated with optic nerve hypoplasia and with syndromic microphthalmia, a severe form of structural eye malformation. This gene lies within an intron of another gene called SOX2 overlapping transcript (SOX2OT).

Research Backgrounds

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 ZFP206 (By similarity). Binds to the proximal enhancer region of NANOG (By similarity). Critical for early embryogenesis and for embryonic stem cell pluripotency. Downstream SRRT target that mediates the promotion of neural stem cell self-renewal (By similarity). Keeps neural cells undifferentiated by counteracting the activity of proneural proteins and suppresses neuronal differentiation (By similarity). May function as a switch in neuronal development (By similarity).

PTMs:

Sumoylation inhibits binding on DNA and negatively regulates the FGF4 transactivation.

Subunit Structure:

Interacts with ZSCAN10 (By similarity). Interacts with SOX3 and FGFR1 (By similarity). Interacts with GLIS1. Interacts with POU5F1; binds synergistically with POU5F1 to DNA (By similarity).
