Gene:
SRY (sex determining region Y)-box 11
Gene ID:
199633
Symbol:
SOX11
Species:
1000
Description:
This intronless 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. The protein may function in the developing nervous system and play a role in tumorigenesis.
