| NCBI Gene Info:Enables DNA binding activity and DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in several processes, including imaginal disc development; regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and segment specification. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including Malpighian tubule; anterior-posterior subdivision of organism; embryonic/larval digestive system; germ layer; and presumptive embryonic/larval system. Orthologous to human TSHZ1 (teashirt zinc finger homeobox 1); TSHZ2 (teashirt zinc finger homeobox 2); and TSHZ3 (teashirt zinc finger homeobox 3).
