- Background
- SOX7 belongs to SOX gene family and SOX proteins are transcription factors with critical roles in the regulation of diverse developmental processes. This gene is mapped to 8p23.1. SOX7 gene contains at least 2 exons. In cotransfected 293 cells, Sox7 reduced Wnt (see WNT1)/beta-catenin (see CTNNB1)- stimulated transcription. SOX7 is a potent activator of FGF3 transcription. It not only plays a role in the transcriptional regulation of genes expressed in the hemogenic endothelium but also blocks further differentiation into blood precursors. And it may be required for the survival of both hematopoietic and endothelial precursors during specification.

- Immunogen
- A synthetic peptide corresponding to a sequence at the C-terminus of human SOX7, identical to the related mouse and rat sequences.
- Clonality
- Polyclonal
- Tissue Specificity
- Widely expressed in adult and fetal tissues. Present both in mesenchymal and epithelial cells in some adult tissues, including colon. Tends to be down-regulated in prostate adenocarcinomas and colorectal tumors due to promoter hypermethylation. .

- Function
- Binds to and activates the CDH5 promoter, hence plays a role in the transcriptional regulation of genes expressed in the hemogenic endothelium and blocks further differentiation into blood precursors (By similarity). May be required for the survival of both hematopoietic and endothelial precursors during specification (By similarity). Competes with GATA4 for binding and activation of the FGF3 promoter (By similarity). Represses Wnt/beta-catenin-stimulated transcription, probably by targeting CTNNB1 to proteasomal degradation. Binds the DNA sequence 5'- AACAAT-3'. .
