Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including invasive growth in response to glucose limitation; positive regulation of pseudohyphal growth; and pseudohyphal growth. Located in nucleus. Part of Tec1p-Ste12p-Dig1p complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Sveinsson chorioretinal atrophy. Orthologous to several human genes including TEAD3 (TEA domain transcription factor 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
