Description
Predicted to have sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in camera-type eye photoreceptor cell differentiation and retina layer formation. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in isolated microphthalmia 3. Is expressed in eye; optic cup; optic primordium; and optic vesicle. Orthologous to human RAX (retina and anterior neural fold homeobox).
