Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and identical protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including circulatory system development; mesenchymal cell development; and regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cardiac muscle hypertrophy in response to stress; circulatory system development; and negative regulation of cardiac muscle cell apoptotic process. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; genitourinary system; nervous system; sensory organ; and tooth. Used to study aortic valve disease and tetralogy of Fallot. Orthologous to human HEY2 (hes related family bHLH transcription factor with YRPW motif 2).

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.
