Description

Predicted to have several functions, including DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and histone deacetylase binding activity. Involved in heart development and transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to localize to nuclear chromatin. Is expressed in several structures, including bone element; brain; cardiovascular system; mesoderm; and pharyngeal arch. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal dominant mental retardation 20. Orthologous to human MEF2C (myocyte enhancer factor 2C).
