CARM1 mediates modulation of Sox2. [PDF]
Sox2 is a key component of the transcription factor network that maintains the pluripotent state of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). Sox2 is regulated by multiple post-translational modifications, including ubiquitination, sumoylation, acetylation and ...

Specificity and application of SOX2 antibody
Sox2 is known to play an important role in maintaining the totipotency and self-renewal of embryonic stem cells. The purpose of this study was to prepare an anti-chicken Sox2 polyclonal antibody using prokaryotic expression techniques, to evaluate its ...

Long Live Sox2: Sox2 Lasts a Lifetime [PDF]
Sox2 is a key transcription factor required for the maintenance of pluripotency in embryonic cells and morphogenesis of several epithelia. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Arnold et al. (2011) demonstrate that Sox2 marks long-lived adult stem cells to ensure homeostasis in a broad range of adult tissues.

Mutations in SOX2 cause anophthalmia [PDF]
A submicroscopic deletion containing SOX2 was identified at the 3q breakpoint in a child with t(3;11)(q26.3;p11.2) associated with bilateral anophthalmia. Subsequent SOX2 mutation analysis identified de novo truncating mutations of SOX2 in 4 of 35 (11%) individuals with anophthalmia. Both eyes were affected in all cases with an identified mutation.

Sox2 modulation increases naïve pluripotency plasticity [PDF]
AbstractInduced pluripotency provides a tool to explore the molecular mechanisms underlying the establishment, maintenance and differentiation of naïve pluripotent stem cells (nPSCs). Here, we report that self-renewal of nPSCs requires minimal Sox2 expression (Sox2-low).

Sox2: A multitasking networker [PDF]
The transcription factor Sox2 is best known as a pluripotency factor in stem and precursor cells and its expression generally correlates with an undifferentiated state. Proposed modes of action include those as classical transcription factor and pre-patterning factor with influence on histone modifications and chromatin structure. Recently, we provided

Identifying SOX2-OT transcript that is responsible for regulating SOX2 in cancer cells and embryonic stem cells [PDF]
SOX2 overlapping transcript (SOX2-OT) is an evolutionarily conserved long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) whose intronic region contains the transcript of pluripotency gene SRY-box transcription factor 2 (SOX2).

The Sox2 transcription factor binds RNA [PDF]
AbstractCertain transcription factors are proposed to form functional interactions with RNA to facilitate proper regulation of gene expression. Sox2, a transcription factor critical for maintenance of pluripotency and neurogenesis, has been found associated with several lncRNAs, although it is unknown whether these interactions are direct or via other ...

Immunohistochemical investigation of SOX2 expression in Iraqi patients with high-grade glioma [PDF]
Background. Gliomas, particularly high-grade gliomas, are aggressive brain tumors with poor prognosis. Sex-determining region Y-box 2 (SOX2) is a transcription factor responsible for stem cell maintenance and differentiation and has been implicated in ...
