SOX17, Official Symbol SOX17provided by HGNC Official Full Name SRY-box transcription factor 17provided by HGNC Primary source HGNC:HGNC:18122 See related Ensembl:ENSG00000164736 MIM:610928; AllianceGenome:HGNC:18122 Gene type protein coding RefSeq status REVIEWED Organism Homo sapiens Lineage Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo Also known as VUR3 Summary This 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 regulator after forming a protein complex with other proteins.
