Scx - scleraxis bHLH transcription factor 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 bHLH transcription factor binding activity. Predicted to contribute to E-box binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including Collagen fibril organization; regulation of transcription, DNA-templated; and skeletal system development. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to growth factor stimulus; cellular response to mechanical stimulus; and face morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of transcription regulator complex. Orthologous to human SCX (scleraxis bHLH transcription factor).
