- 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 fourth ventricle development; maintenance of animal organ identity; and midbrain-hindbrain boundary development. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including blood vessel; gonad; hypoblast; male organism; and paraxial mesoderm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in blepharophimosis, ptosis, and epicanthus inversus syndrome; lung non-small cell carcinoma; and primary ovarian insufficiency 3. Orthologous to human FOXL2 (forkhead box L2).
