Description
Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in embryonic morphogenesis. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including cleft lip; orofacial cleft 5; parietal foramina; tooth and nail syndrome; and tooth disease (multiple). Is expressed in several structures, including fin bud; median fin fold; sensory system; solid lens vesicle; and vent. Orthologous to several human genes including MSX2 (msh homeobox 2).
