Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of smoothened signaling pathway and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including hematopoietic stem cell homeostasis; positive regulation of protein localization to nucleus; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in non-motile cilium and nuclear speck. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; gut; nervous system; oocyte; and retina layer. Used to study nephronophthisis 7. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephronophthisis 7. Orthologous to human GLIS2 (GLIS family zinc finger 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 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.
