CC -!- FUNCTION: Transcription factor with sequence-specific DNA binding
CC activity. Binds to the consensus sequence 5'-[AT][AT]CAA[AT]G-3',
CC showing a preference for 5'-AACAAT-3' and 5'-AACAAAG-3'. Inhibits beta-
CC catenin-mediated dorsal axis specification by binding to sites within
CC the promoter of the beta-catenin-regulated gene nodal5. Maternally
CC derived sox3 acts as a transcriptional repressor of nodal5 and nodal6
CC to restrict their expression to the vegetal hemisphere of early embryos
CC and thus establish germ layer formation. Acts at multiple points to
CC inhibit nodal signaling, repressing the expression of the other
CC mesoderm-inducing nodal genes nodal, nodal2 and nodal4, and also acting
CC downstream to induce expression of genes including trim33/ectodermin,
CC ema and coco, whose products repress nodal signaling (By similarity).
CC {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with ctnnb1. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55863}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55863,
CC ECO:0000255|PROSITE-ProRule:PRU00267}. Cytoplasm
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55863}. Note=Primarily cytoplasmic in early
CC embryos. Nuclear localization becomes more pronounced as development
CC proceeds (By similarity). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P55863}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The 9aaTAD motif is a transactivation domain present in a large
CC number of yeast and animal transcription factors.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P41225}.
