Description
Predicted to have identical protein binding activity and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in forebrain development. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in septooptic dysplasia. Is expressed in anterior presumptive neural plate; neural keel; neural plate; and telencephalon. Orthologous to human HESX1 (HESX homeobox 1).
