- Description
- Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in embryonic camera-type eye morphogenesis; nervous system development; and sensory epithelium regeneration. Predicted to localize to nucleus and transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including ectoderm; hypoblast; immature eye; nervous system; and neural keel. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in holoprosencephaly and holoprosencephaly 2. Orthologous to human SIX3 (SIX homeobox 3).
