    Summary
    Predicted to enable metal ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within noradrenergic neuron development; positive regulation of DNA-binding transcription factor activity; and protein monoubiquitination. Located in neuronal cell body. Is expressed in metencephalon basal plate; nervous system; and neural retina. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Miles-Carpenter syndrome. Orthologous to human ZC4H2 (zinc finger C4H2-type containing). [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.
