Description
Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in embryonic camera-type eye morphogenesis; nervous system development; and sensory epithelium regeneration. Predicted to localize to nucleus and transcription factor complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in holoprosencephaly and holoprosencephaly 2. Is expressed in several structures, including ectoderm; hypoblast; immature eye; nervous system; and neural keel. Orthologous to human SIX3 (SIX homeobox 3).
