Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of cell differentiation; nephron morphogenesis; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including nervous system development; regulation of nervous system development; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; embryo ectoderm; paraxial mesenchyme; sensory organ; and urinary system. Orthologous to human HES5 (hes family bHLH transcription factor 5).
