SOX-9 gene and protein and use in the regeneration of bone or cartilage
This invention relates to an isolated DNA molecule encoding a Sox-9 gene which codes for the Sox-9 polypeptide. The human SOX-9 gene has been mapped to chromosome 17 in the same region as CMPD-1, the locus for Campomelic Dysplasia (CD). Sox-9 appears to have a role in mammalian skeletal development,...

Zusammenfassung: | This invention relates to an isolated DNA molecule encoding a Sox-9 gene which codes for the Sox-9 polypeptide. The human SOX-9 gene has been mapped to chromosome 17 in the same region as CMPD-1, the locus for Campomelic Dysplasia (CD). Sox-9 appears to have a role in mammalian skeletal development, and is used in the treatment of diseases involving bone or cartilage deficiency. |
