SOX13 SRY-box transcription factor 13

Gene ID: 9580, updated on 27-Aug-2024
Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: ICA12; Sox-13

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 cell fate. The encoded protein may act as a transcriptional regulator after forming a protein complex with other proteins. It has also been determined to be a type-1 diabetes autoantigen, also known as islet cell antibody 12. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
