Abstract excerpt
The high-mobility-group domain-containing transcription factor Sox11 is expressed transiently during embryonic development in many tissues that undergo inductive remodeling. Here we have analyzed the function of Sox11 by gene deletion in the mouse. Sox11-deficient mice died at birth from congenital cyanosis, likely resulting from heart defects. These included ventricular septation defects and outflow tract...
