Description
Predicted to have DNA binding activity; DNA-binding transcription factor activity; and protein dimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including immature eye; nervous system; pectoral fin bud; pharyngeal arch; and pronephric duct. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Feingold syndrome. Orthologous to human MYCN (MYCN proto-oncogene, bHLH transcription factor).
