Also known as: cb807; id:ibd2176; wu:fj52a10; wu:fq33c12
Summary: Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within anterior/posterior axis specification and determination of left/right symmetry. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; mesoderm; neural keel; neural plate; and presumptive structure. Used to study right atrial isomerism; spina bifida; and visceral heterotaxy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in X-linked VACTERL association; situs inversus; and visceral heterotaxy. Orthologous to human ZIC3 (Zic family member 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

GeneRIFs: Gene References Into Functions

What's a GeneRIF?

a genomic sequence that is conserved between humans and zebrafish acts as an enhancer that likely controls zic3 and zic6 expression.
Title: A novel conserved enhancer at zebrafish zic3 and zic6 loci drives neural expression.
This demonstrated that Zic3 regulation of developmental genes is achieved predominantly through long distance regulatory mechanism and revealed that developmental transitions could be accompanied by dramatic changes in regulatory landscape.
Title: Genome wide analysis reveals Zic3 interaction with distal regulatory elements of stage specific developmental genes in zebrafish.
BMP, Wnt and FGF signaling are needed for expression of the neural plate border specifiers pax3a and zic3 in zebrafish
Title: BMP, Wnt and FGF signals are integrated through evolutionarily conserved enhancers to achieve robust expression of Pax3 and Zic genes at the zebrafish neural plate border.
results demonstrate a functional conservation of Zic3 in left-right patterning and uncover a previously unrecognized role for Zic3 in convergent extension morphogenesis during early vertebrate development
Title: An essential and highly conserved role for Zic3 in left-right patterning, gastrulation and convergent extension morphogenesis.

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.
