    Summary
    Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity and transcription cis-regulatory region binding activity. Involved in several processes, including conditioned taste aversion; response to estradiol; and response to progesterone. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Biomarker of renal carcinoma. Orthologous to human FOSL2 (FOS like 2, AP-1 transcription factor subunit). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 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.
