Summary

Enables RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity and sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within with a positive effect on apoptotic process; hypothalamus gonadotrophin-releasing hormone neuron development; and peripheral nervous system development. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cell migration in hindbrain; male gonad development; and male mating behavior. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of chromatin. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
