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; HMG box domain binding activity; and RNA polymerase II general transcription initiation factor activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic morphogenesis; neuronal stem cell population maintenance; and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; heart and pericardium; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in agnathia-otocephaly complex. Orthologous to human PRRX1 (paired related homeobox 1).
