Summary
Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within embryonic viscerocranium morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including anterior neural keel; hindbrain neural keel; nervous system; neural plate; and neural rod. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cleft palate, cardiac defects, and intellectual disabillity. Orthologous to human MEIS2 (Meis homeobox 2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
