Pw Sox-1: the first member of the Sox gene family in Urodeles.
The Y chromosomal switch gene SRY, which initiates testis development during mammalian embryogenesis was recently described (l).The SRY-encoded protein contains a 79 amino acid DNA-binding motif referred to as an HMG-box (2) known to exist in other transcription factors or proteins involved in DNA bending (3). On the basis of the homology between their HMGboxes, other SRY-related genes have bee...
متن کاملRegulation of the expression and activity by progestins of a member of the SOX gene family of transcriptional modulators.
The mammalian testis-determining gene Sry and the related Sox genes define a family of transcriptional regulators widely expressed during embryogenesis. Tightly controlled temporal profiles of expression are a feature of the Sox gene family and may be required for initiation of a cascade of gene expression, yet the molecular mechanisms that control Sox gene expression are unknown. We now show t...
متن کاملRegulation of the SOX 3 Gene
SOX3 gene expression by retinoic acid 2 Summary Sox3/SOX3 gene is considered to be one of the earliest neural markers in vertebrates. Despite the mounting evidence that Sox3/SOX3 is one of the key players in the development of the nervous system, limited data are available regarding the transcriptional regulation of its expression. This review is focused on the retinoic acid induced regulation ...
متن کاملA comparison of the properties of So Sox - 1 and Sox - 2
in of e n factor containing a 79-amino-acid DNA-binding domain known as the HMG box (Capel and Lovell-Badge, 1993). Many genes have now been cloned on the basis of their homology to the HMG box of Sry and comprise the Sox gene family, for Sry-related HMG box-containing genes. Approximately 20 Sox genes have been found in mammals, with more being identified in other vertebrates and invertebrates...
متن کاملSox Neuro, a new Drosophila Sox gene expressed in the developing central nervous system
We describe the identification and detailed expression pattern of a second Drosophila Sox gene, SoxNeuro (SoxN), highly related to mammalian group B Sox1, 2, 3 genes. SoxN is expressed in a highly dynamic pattern during embyogenesis, being associated with the development of the central nervous system (CNS), from the early steps onwards. We present strong evidence that the early SoxN neuroectode...
