SOX5 SRY-box transcription factor 5

Gene ID: 6660, updated on 7-Apr-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: L-SOX5; LAMSHF; L-SOX5B; L-SOX5F

Summary

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. The encoded protein may play a role in chondrogenesis. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 8. Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
