Description

Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in nervous system development and proximal tubule development. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including basal plate midbrain region; central nervous system; corpuscles of Stannius; intermediate mesoderm; and pronephros. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in obesity. Orthologous to human SIM1 (SIM bHLH transcription factor 1).
