Gene information for SOX9 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6662
Official gene symbolSOX9
Full nameSRY (sex determining region Y)-box 9
Aliases,CMD1,CMPD1,SRA1,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene recognizes the sequence CCTTGAG along with other members of the HMG-box class DNA-binding proteins. It acts during chondrocyte differentiation and, with steroidogenic factor 1, regulates transcription of the anti-Muellerian hormone (AMH) gene. Deficiencies lead to the skeletal malformation syndrome campomelic dysplasia, frequently with sex reversal. [provided by RefSeq]
