Summary: Predicted to enable several functions, including MADS box domain binding activity; cysteine-type endopeptidase activator activity involved in apoptotic process; and histone deacetylase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including chordate embryonic development; positive regulation of cell communication; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including epithelial cell proliferation involved in salivary gland morphogenesis; morphogenesis of a branching epithelium; and negative regulation of epithelial cell proliferation involved in prostate gland development. Predicted to be located in cytosol; nucleoplasm; and site of DNA damage. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hepatocellular carcinoma. Orthologous to human NKX3-1 (NK3 homeobox 1). [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.
