Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and beta-catenin binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including diencephalon development; dorsal/ventral pattern formation; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in Rathke's pouch; adenohypophysis; adenohypophysis pars anterior; embryo; and pituitary gland. Used to study hypopituitarism. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypogonadism; hypopituitarism; and panhypopituitarism. Orthologous to human PROP1 (PROP paired-like homeobox 1).
