About Ascl5

Summary

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 by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in genitourinary system; oral region epithelium; and tooth. Orthologous to human ASCL5 (achaete-scute family bHLH transcription factor 5).
