Summary: Predicted to enable sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cartilage condensation; central nervous system development; and common myeloid progenitor cell proliferation. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Orthologous to human UNCX (UNC homeobox). [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.
