General annotation (Comments)

Function

Promotes the exchange of Ras-bound GDP by GTP.

Subunit structure

Interacts with GRB2. Forms a complex with phosphorylated MUC1 and GRB2 (via its SH3 domains). Interacts with phosphorylated LAT2.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in gingival tissues.

Involvement in disease

Defects in SOS1 are the cause of gingival fibromatosis 1 (GGF1) [MIM:135300]; also designated GINGF1. Gingival fibromatosis is a rare overgrowth condition characterized by a benign, slowly progressive, nonhemorrhagic, fibrous enlargement of maxillary and mandibular keratinized gingiva. GGF1 is usually transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait, although sporadic cases are common.

Defects in SOS1 are the cause of Noonan syndrome type 4 (NS4) [MIM:610733]. NS4 is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by dysmorphic facial features, short stature, hypertelorism, cardiac anomalies, deafness, motor delay, and a bleeding diathesis. It is a genetically heterogeneous and relatively common syndrome, with an estimated incidence of 1 in 1000-2500 live births. Rarely, NS4 is associated with juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia (JMML). SOS1 mutations engender a high prevalence of pulmonary valve disease; atrial septal defects are less common.
