  • Title: Numerous members of the Sox family of HMG box-containing genes are expressed in developing mouse teeth.
    Author: Stock DW, Buchanan AV, Zhao Z, Weiss KM.
    Journal: Genomics; 1996 Oct 15; 37(2):234-7. PubMed ID: 8921394.
    Abstract:
    We used RT-PCR to detect the expression in mouse molar and incisor tooth germs of 14 of the 19 known members of the Sox family of HMG box-containing transcription factors. These sequences fell into all 6 of the main subdivisions of the Sox family. In general, the relative transcript abundance of the different Sox genes is similar between molar and incisor tooth germs, although 3 low-abundance transcripts were found in only a single tooth type. The expression of Sox genes during tooth development has not been reported previously and further experiments will be required to determine their role in this process.
