Summary: Enables sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of outer hair cell apoptotic process; nervous system development; and sensory perception of sound. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Biomarker of Alzheimer's disease; high grade glioma; and triple-receptor negative breast cancer.

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.
