Sox2 - SRY (sex determining region Y)-box 2 Gene

Also Known as lcc; ysb; Sox-2

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding

Gene ID: 20674

Summary

This intronless gene encodes 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 a similar gene in human 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). [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
