SOHLH2
Function
Transcription regulator of both male and female germline differentiation. Suppresses genes involved in spermatogonial stem cells maintenance, and induces genes important for spermatogonial differentiation. Coordinates oocyte differentiation without affecting meiosis I (By similarity).
Cellular localization
- Nucleus
- Cytoplasm
- Translocates from the cytoplasm into the nucleus and the translocation is dependent on SOHLH1 expression.
Alternative names
TEB1, SOHLH2, Spermatogenesis- and oogenesis-specific basic helix-loop-helix-containing protein 2
