Description
Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within floor plate formation and ventral spinal cord interneuron differentiation. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; prechordal plate; presumptive ectoderm; primary interneuron; and trunk. Orthologous to human NKX2-2 (NK2 homeobox 2) and NKX2-8 (NK2 homeobox 8).
