NCBI Gene Info:Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within neural tube development. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; metanephros; neural ectoderm; reproductive system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in coloboma. Orthologous to human SALL2 (spalt like transcription factor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022] |
