- Description
- Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and E-box binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including positive regulation of neurogenesis; retina layer formation; and swimming behavior. Predicted to be located in axon and perikaryon. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in eye and immature eye. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous. Orthologous to human ATOH7 (atonal bHLH transcription factor 7).
