Description

Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in animal organ development; cardiac muscle tissue regeneration; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital heart disease (multiple). Is expressed in several structures, including cardiac muscle myoblast; digestive system; mesoderm; pericardial region; and reproductive system. Orthologous to human GATA4 (GATA binding protein 4).
