Emx1 - empty spiracles homeobox 1 Gene

Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in brain development; neuron differentiation; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including nervous system development; neuroepithelial cell differentiation; and regulation of oligodendrocyte progenitor proliferation. Predicted to be located in chromosome and nucleolus. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human EMX1 (empty spiracles homeobox 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
