Description
Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in cell proliferation involved in compound eye morphogenesis. Predicted to localize to nucleus and transcription factor complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in optic disc anomalies with retinal and/or macular dystrophy. Is expressed in hypothalamus. Orthologous to human SIX6 (SIX homeobox 6).
