Gene information for SOX10 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID6663
Official gene symbolSOX10
Full nameSRY (sex determining region Y)-box 10
Aliases,DOM,MGC15649,PCWH,WS2E,WS4,WS4C,
Gene summaryThis 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 activator after forming a protein complex with other proteins. This protein acts as a nucleocytoplasmic shuttle protein and is important for neural crest and peripheral nervous system development. Mutations in this gene are associated with Waardenburg-Shah and Waardenburg-Hirschsprung disease. [provided by RefSeq]
