Description

Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell development; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and neuron differentiation. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; pectoral fin bud; pronephric duct; statoacoustic (VIII) ganglion; and trigeminal placode. Orthologous to human IRX5 (iroquois homeobox 5).
