Description
Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II activating transcription factor binding activity; and RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including regulation of skeletal muscle tissue development; somatic motor neuron differentiation; and somitogenesis. Localizes to chromatin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spondylocostal dysostosis. Is expressed in mesoderm; presumptive mesoderm; slow muscle cell; tail bud; and trunk. Orthologous to human TBX6 (T-box transcription factor 6).
