Description

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including morphogenesis of embryonic epithelium; regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and somitogenesis. Predicted to act upstream of or within positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Predicted to be active in chromatin and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including fin bud; medial longitudinal fasciculus; pectoral fin; pericardial region; and proepicardial cluster. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in CAKUT2. Orthologous to human TBX18 (T-box transcription factor 18).
