- Description
- Predicted to have DNA binding activity and DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in cell population proliferation and posterior lateral line neuromast primordium migration. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including nervous system; neural tube; pancreatic system; paraxial mesoderm; and pronephros. Orthologous to human HOXB8 (homeobox B8).
