Helt - helt bHLH transcription factor Gene

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in anterior/posterior pattern specification; regulation of neurogenesis; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including nervous system development; regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and suckling behavior. Predicted to be part of transcription regulator complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human HELT (helt bHLH transcription factor).
