Abstract:Our group and others have previously linked SOX (SRY‐related HMG‐box) genes to cardiovascular regulation and cancer. SOX proteins are transcription factors containing a highly conserved HMG (high mobility group) box DNA binding domain that enables sequence specific DNA interaction, bending, and gene regulation. Sequence variation in the HMG box of SOX genes has not been fully explored in humans; therefore, we have evaluated the variants within the 20 human SOX genes from ~60,000 exomes/genomes of gnomAD and al… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
