    Summary
    Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in embryonic limb morphogenesis. Acts upstream of or within dorsal/ventral pattern formation and proximal/distal pattern formation. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; embryo ectoderm; limb bud; nose; and primitive streak. Orthologous to human SP8 (Sp8 transcription factor).

    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.
