SOX18 - SRY-box transcription factor 18 Gene
Also Known as HLTS; HLTRS
Species: Homo sapiens
About SOX18
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 150 orthologues, 20 paralogues and is associated with 4 phenotypes. Biased expression in fat (RPKM 25.4), kidney (RPKM 7.2) and 9 other tissues.
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. 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. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
