Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to amino acid starvation; negative regulation of ERK1 and ERK2 cascade; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within gluconeogenesis; negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and skeletal muscle cell differentiation. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; cardiovascular system; central nervous system; genitourinary system; and long bone. Orthologous to human ATF3 (activating transcription factor 3). [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.
