    Summary
    Predicted to enable C2H2 zinc finger domain binding activity; DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in cellular response to epidermal growth factor stimulus; positive regulation of cell population proliferation; and response to nutrient levels. Predicted to be located in centriolar satellite and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of protein-DNA complex. Biomarker of nephroblastoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in focal segmental glomerulosclerosis 7; renal Wilms' tumor; and renal coloboma syndrome. Orthologous to human PAX2 (paired box 2).

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
