Background: The SOX (SRY-box containing gene) gene family encodes a group of transcription factors defined by the conserved high motility group (HMG) DNA-binding domain. They are involved in the regulation of embryonic development and in the determination of cell fate. SOX4 shows a high degree of sequence homology with SOX11. Both are expressed in the CNS. SOX4 and SOX11 expression increase together in the developing CNS (with some exceptions: external granule layer of the cerebellum). SOX4 knock-out mice have been shown to die of a heart defect half way through gestation with no observable CNS phenotype, although it has been proposed that SOX11 compensates for the absence of SOX4.
