Insm2 - insulinoma-associated 2 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 transcription corepressor activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; neuron differentiation; and regulation of cell cycle process. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be part of transcription repressor complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; central nervous system; eye; genitourinary system; and pancreas. Orthologous to human INSM2 (INSM transcriptional repressor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
