Description
Predicted to have several functions, including DNA-binding transcription factor activity; bHLH transcription factor binding activity; and protein dimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of neuron differentiation and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to localize to nucleus and transcription factor complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in craniosynostosis. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; cranial vault; mesoderm; neural tube; and presumptive diencephalon. Orthologous to human TCF12 (transcription factor 12).
