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. Acts upstream of or within endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein response and response to hypoxia. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in head; liver; nervous system; and trunk. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in achromatopsia 7. Orthologous to human ATF6 (activating transcription factor 6).
