Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables DNA binding activity; DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; and promoter-specific chromatin binding activity. Involved in gene expression and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic morphogenesis; nervous system development; and tube morphogenesis. Located in several cellular components, including axoneme; ciliary tip; and nuclear speck. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; eye; genitourinary system; and jaw. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Culler-Jones syndrome; holoprosencephaly 9; and spina bifida. Orthologous to human GLI2 (GLI family zinc finger 2).
