Name | SOX18 |
---|---|
Function | Transcriptional activator that binds to the consensus sequence 5'-AACAAAG-3' in the promoter of target genes and plays an essential role in embryonic cardiovascular development and lymphangiogenesis. Activates transcription of PROX1 and other genes coding for lymphatic endothelial markers. Plays an essential role in triggering the differentiation of lymph vessels, but is not required for the maintenance of differentiated lymphatic endothelial cells. Plays an important role in postnatal angiogenesis, where it is functionally redundant with SOX17. Interaction with MEF2C enhances transcriptional activation. Besides, required for normal hair development. |
Cellular Location | Nucleus {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00267}. |
Tissue Location | Detected in heart, lung, placenta, skeletal muscle, liver, kidney, spleen, prostate, ovary, msosmall intestine and colon |

Background
This gene encodes a member of the SOX (SRY-relatedHMG-box) family of transcription factors involved in the regulationof embryonic development and in the determination of the cell fate.The encoded protein may act as a transcriptional regulator afterforming a protein complex with other proteins. This protein plays arole in hair, blood vessel, and lymphatic vessel development.Mutations in this gene have been associated with recessive anddominant forms of hypotrichosis-lymphedema-telangiectasia.
