Summary: Enables p53 binding activity and transcription regulator inhibitor activity. Involved in negative regulation of DNA-binding transcription factor activity and negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in male germ cell nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including eye; genitourinary system; heart; nervous system; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human TAF3 (TATA-box binding protein associated factor 3).

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.
