Description

Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in obesity. Is expressed in caudal tuberculum; diencephalon; hypothalamus; midbrain; and preoptic area. Orthologous to human SIM1 (SIM bHLH transcription factor 1).
