Anti-SOX5

0.5mg/ml if reconstituted with 0.2ml sterile DI water. Transcription factor SOX-5 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SOX5 gene. It is located on 12p12.1. 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. In addition, the encoded protein may play a role in chondrogenesis. A pseudogene of this gene is located on chromosome 8. Multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. Protein function: Binds specifically to the DNA sequence 5'-AACAAT-3'. Activates transcription of COL2A1 and AGC1 in vitro. [The UniProt Consortium]
