- Description
- Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Involved in brain development and embryonic retina morphogenesis in camera-type eye. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Dandy-Walker syndrome and craniosynostosis. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; neural keel; neural plate; neural rod; and presumptive neural plate. Orthologous to human ZIC1 (Zic family member 1).
