Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables DNA binding activity; DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; and chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of epithelial to mesenchymal transition; negative regulation of transmembrane receptor protein serine/threonine kinase signaling pathway; and regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including circulatory system development; positive regulation of keratinocyte differentiation; and tube morphogenesis. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; genitourinary system; gut; head surface ectoderm; and otocyst. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy 1. Orthologous to human OVOL2 (ovo like zinc finger 2).
