Description
Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in artery development; lymphangiogenesis; and vasculogenesis. Predicted to localize to nuclear chromatin. Is expressed in several structures, including angioblastic mesenchymal cell; cardiovascular system; immature eye; intermediate cell mass of mesoderm; and mesoderm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypotrichosis-lymphedema-telangiectasia syndrome and hypotrichosis-lymphedema-telangiectasia-renal defect syndrome. Orthologous to human SOX18 (SRY-box transcription factor 18).
