Description

Exhibits transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including myofibril assembly; positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and somitogenesis. Predicted to localize to nuclear chromatin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in dilated cardiomyopathy. Is expressed in cardiovascular system; myotome; nervous system; pharyngeal arch; and somite. Orthologous to human MEF2A (myocyte enhancer factor 2A).
