Lhx5 - LIM homeobox 5 Gene

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated; regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and spinal cord association neuron differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within brain development and cerebellar Purkinje cell-granule cell precursor cell signaling involved in regulation of granule cell precursor cell proliferation. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human LHX5 (LIM homeobox 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
