Description

Enables sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in nervous system development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic organ morphogenesis; nervous system development; and pronephros development. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including immature eye; mesoderm; nervous system; neural keel; and pronephros. Used to study coloboma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in focal segmental glomerulosclerosis 7; renal Wilms' tumor; and renal coloboma syndrome. Orthologous to human PAX2 (paired box 2).
