SOX18
| View/Edit Human | View/Edit Mouse |
Transcription factor SOX-18 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SOX18 gene.[3][4]
Function
This gene encodes a member of the SOX (SRY-related HMG-box) family of transcription factors involved in the regulation of embryonic development and in the determination of the cell fate. The encoded protein may act as a transcriptional regulator after forming a protein complex with other proteins. This protein plays a role in hair, blood vessel, and lymphatic vessel development. Mutations in this gene have been associated with recessive and dominant forms of hypotrichosis-lymphedema-telangiectasia.[4]
Interactions
SOX18 has been shown to interact with MEF2C.[5]
