Summary: Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and kinase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of reactive oxygen species metabolic process and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of with a positive effect on autosome genomic imprinting. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of astrocyte differentiation; positive regulation of cell population proliferation; and skeletal system morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in nucleolus and nucleoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Feingold syndrome. Orthologous to human MYCN (MYCN proto-oncogene, bHLH transcription factor).

Regulatory role of N-myc downregulated genes in amelogenesis in rats.
Title: Regulatory role of N-myc downregulated genes in amelogenesis in rats.
the effects of Huwe1 on Notch1 signaling were completely abolished by knockdown of NMyc, indicating that Huwe1 may require NMyc to suppress the activation of the Notch1 signaling in L2.3 cells.
Title: Huwe1 is a novel mediator of protection of neural progenitor L2.3 cells against oxygen‑glucose deprivation injury.
Data show that nitric oxide negatively regulates proliferation and promotes neuronal differentiation through N-Myc downregulation.

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.
