CC -!- FUNCTION: Transcription factor required during the formation of the
CC hypothalamo-pituitary axis. May function as a switch in neuronal
CC development. Keeps neural cells undifferentiated by counteracting the
CC activity of proneural proteins and suppresses neuronal differentiation.
CC Required also within the pharyngeal epithelia for craniofacial
CC morphogenesis. Controls a genetic switch in male development. Is
CC necessary for initiating male sex determination by directing the
CC development of supporting cell precursors (pre-Sertoli cells) as
CC Sertoli rather than granulosa cells (By similarity). {ECO:0000250,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:21183788}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with SOX2 and FGFR1. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- INTERACTION:

CC P41225; Q12933: TRAF2; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-9078386, EBI-355744;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The 9aaTAD motif is a transactivation domain present in a large
CC number of yeast and animal transcription factors.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:34342803}.
CC -!- DISEASE: Panhypopituitarism X-linked (PHPX) [MIM:312000]: Affected
CC individuals have absent infundibulum, anterior pituitary hypoplasia,
CC and ectopic posterior pituitary. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15800844}.
CC Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented
CC in this entry.
CC -!- DISEASE: Intellectual developmental disorder, X-linked, with isolated
CC growth hormone deficiency (MRXGH) [MIM:300123]: A disorder
CC characterized by the association of variable degrees of intellectual
CC disability with panhypopituitarism, variable combinations of
CC hypothyroidism, delayed pubertal development, and short stature due to
CC growth hormone deficiency. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12428212}. Note=The
CC disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this
CC entry.
CC -!- DISEASE: 46,XX sex reversal 3 (SRXX3) [MIM:300833]: A condition in
CC which male gonads develop in a genetic female (female to male sex
CC reversal). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21183788}. Note=The disease is caused by
CC variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Copy number
CC variations (CNV) encompassing or in close proximity to SOX3 are
CC responsible for XX male reversal. These variations include two
CC duplications of approximately 123 kb and 85 kb, the former of which
CC spans the entire SOX3 gene; a 343 kb deletion immediately upstream of
CC SOX3 that is probably responsible of altered regulation (and not
CC increased dosage) of SOX3; a large (approximately 6 Mb) duplication
CC that encompasses SOX3 and at least 18 additional distally located
CC genes. Its proximal breakpoint falls within the SOX3 regulatory region.
CC This large rearrangement has been found in a patient with XX male
CC reversal and a complex phenotype that also includes a scrotal
CC hypoplasia, microcephaly, developmental delay, and growth retardation.
CC -!- DISEASE: Hypoparathyroidism, X-linked (HYPX) [MIM:307700]: An X-linked
CC form of true hypoparathyroidism characterized by neonatal or infantile
CC onset and absence of parathyroid glands. Clinical features are
CC hypocalcemia, hyperphosphatemia, seizures, tetany and cramps.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16167084}. Note=The gene represented in this entry
CC may be involved in disease pathogenesis. A disease causing, complex
CC chromosomal rearrangement [del(X)(q27.1)inv ins(X;2)(q27.1;p25.3)] has
CC been found in a family with X-linked hypoparathyroidism. This
CC chromosomal abnormality is located 67 kb downstream of SOX3 and likely
CC results in altered SOX3 expression with pathological consequences.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16167084}.
CC -!- CAUTION: Was originally termed SOX-9. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:1614875}.
