NCBI Gene Info:Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in parotid gland; sublingual gland; submandibular gland; and ureter. Orthologous to human ASCL3 (achaete-scute family bHLH transcription factor 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022] |
