Description

Exhibits DNA-binding transcription factor activity and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including iridophore differentiation; nervous system development; and neural crest cell migration. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in vitiligo. Is expressed in several structures, including mesoderm; nervous system; neural crest; neural keel; and neural plate. Orthologous to human FOXD3 (forkhead box D3).
