Summary: Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; E-box binding activity; and protein heterodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including nervous system development; regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and regulation of synapse maturation. Predicted to act upstream of or within associative learning; behavioral fear response; and neuron development. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in developmental and epileptic encephalopathy 72. Orthologous to human NEUROD2 (neuronal differentiation 2).

What's a GeneRIF?

A NeuroD family member binding to an additional motif near the Glucocorticoid receptor response element seems to drive specificity for Mineralocorticoid receptor over glucocorticoid receptor binding at hippocampal binding sites.
Title: NeuroD Factors Discriminate Mineralocorticoid From Glucocorticoid Receptor DNA Binding in the Male Rat Brain.
Our results reveal an important function for NeuroD2 in balancing synaptic neurotransmission and intrinsic excitability and offer insight into how these processes are coordinated during cortical development.
Title: The transcription factor NeuroD2 coordinates synaptic innervation and cell intrinsic properties to control excitability of cortical pyramidal neurons.
The transduction pathway by which oleic acid induces the expression of genes responsible for neuronal differentiation appears to be mediated by the transcription factor NeuroD2, a regulator of terminal neuronal differentiation
Title: The neurotrophic effect of oleic acid includes dendritic differentiation and the expression of the neuronal basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor NeuroD2.

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.
