- Description
- 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 brain development and optic nerve morphogenesis. Predicted to be part of transcription regulator complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including anterior neural keel; central nervous system; eye; neural plate; and optic vesicle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in holoprosencephaly and holoprosencephaly 2. Orthologous to human SIX3 (SIX homeobox 3).
