Description
Predicted to have sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in apoptotic process involved in morphogenesis; cell fate specification; and nervous system development. Predicted to localize to RSC-type complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autistic disorder. Is expressed in several structures, including adaxial cell; central nervous system; muscle; neural plate; and pharyngeal arch. Orthologous to human EN2 (engrailed homeobox 2).
