SOX21 (Transcription factor SOX-21) is a gene whose normal job is to hold cell growth in check. The public catalogues list it as a tumour suppressor, and it is called a cancer driver by mutation analysis of patient cohorts. Tied to Prostate cancer. This dossier gathers the 0 products (0 approved), 0 trials, 0 pathways and 0 resistance routes in the corpus that involve it, with external identifiers so it can be joined to UniProt, ChEMBL, Open Targets and the rest of biology.
May play a role as an activator of transcription of OPRM1. Overexpression of SOX21 can up-regulate the OPRM1 distal promoter activity in mor-expressing neuronal cells. May play a role in ameloblast differentiation. Location: Nucleus (UniProt). Locus 13q32.1 (HGNC).
