Summary: Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in severe combined immunodeficiency. Orthologous to human RFX5 (regulatory factor X5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]

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.
