Chd7 - chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 7 Gene

Predicted to enable RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity and promoter-specific chromatin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including animal organ development; nervous system development; and regulation of growth hormone secretion. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including adult walking behavior; animal organ development; and nervous system development. Predicted to be located in nucleolus and nucleoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in CHARGE syndrome and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism 5 with or without anosmia. Orthologous to human CHD7 (chromodomain helicase DNA binding protein 7). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
