Summary: Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and transcription coactivator binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including negative regulation of cell differentiation; neuron differentiation; and regulation of myeloid cell differentiation. Located in nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; central nervous system; early conceptus; genitourinary system; and inner ear. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute myeloid leukemia; depressive disorder; immunodeficiency 21; myelodysplastic syndrome; and myeloid leukemia. Orthologous to human GATA2 (GATA binding protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

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.
