Summary
Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and promoter-specific chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of cell population proliferation; regulation of synaptic plasticity; and response to isoquinoline alkaloid. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Biomarker of several diseases, including cocaine dependence; lung disease (multiple); middle cerebral artery infarction; pulmonary hypertension; and visual epilepsy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in asthma. Orthologous to human EGR1 (early growth response 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

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.
