NCBI Gene Info:
Enables DNA binding activity and RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of locomotion and response to xenobiotic stimulus. Predicted to be part of aryl hydrocarbon receptor complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including G2; TL.pa; TL.ppp; neurons; and phasmid socket cell. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in retinitis pigmentosa 85. Orthologous to several human genes including AHR (aryl hydrocarbon receptor).
