Target data

Function

Transcription factor that forms a trimeric complex with OCT4 on DNA and controls the expression of a number of genes involved in embryonic development such as YES1, FGF4, UTF1 and ZFP206 (By similarity). Binds to the proximal enhancer region of NANOG (By similarity). Critical for early embryogenesis and for embryonic stem cell pluripotency (PubMed:18035408). Downstream SRRT target that mediates the promotion of neural stem cell self-renewal (By similarity). Keeps neural cells undifferentiated by counteracting the activity of proneural proteins and suppresses neuronal differentiation (By similarity). May function as a switch in neuronal development (By similarity).

    Transient Wnt and FGF signalling induce dual fated mouse neuromesodermal progenitors.

    Immunostaining of cells treated with FGF/Wnt revealed the coexpression of Brachyury with Sox2 (NMPs). In the absence of Wnt, NPCs express Sox2 but the expression of Brachyury is only evident in a very small proportion of cells.

    At E13, strong SOX2 staining was seen in the lingual region of the epithelial dental lamina in all mice (E, G & H) except for the Usag-1+/+/Runx2-/- mice, in which SOX2 was found throughout the dental lamina (F). At E15, strong SOX2 staining was seen in the additional lingual bud in the Usag-1+/+/Runx2-/- mice (N).
