Sox15

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and chromatin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including nervous system development; positive regulation of G0 to G1 transition; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within myoblast development; negative regulation of striated muscle tissue development; and skeletal muscle tissue regeneration. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of transcription regulator complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human SOX15 (SRY-box transcription factor 15).

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Sox15 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
