Summary: Enables sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including generation of neurons; positive regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process; and regulation of axon extension. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Implicated in oral squamous cell carcinoma. Biomarker of colorectal cancer; oral squamous cell carcinoma; and stomach cancer.

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.
