Description

Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and transcription corepressor activity. Involved in neuron fate specification and thalamus development. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Is expressed in brain; forebrain neural keel; and hypocretin-secreting neurons. Orthologous to human LHX9 (LIM homeobox 9).
