Nhlh2 - nescient helix loop helix 2 Gene

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within with a positive effect on apoptotic process; hypothalamus gonadotrophin-releasing hormone neuron development; and peripheral nervous system development. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cell migration in hindbrain; male gonad development; and male mating behavior. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Orthologous to human NHLH2 (nescient helix-loop-helix 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
