Summary: Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within chorio-allantoic fusion; ectodermal cell differentiation; and trophoblast giant cell differentiation. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; alimentary system; genitourinary system; hemolymphoid system gland; and nervous system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in craniosynostosis. Orthologous to human ERF (ETS2 repressor factor). [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.
