Also known as: PTFB; NATO3; NTWIST; N-TWIST; bHLHa31
Summary: Enables sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in developmental process; negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including floor plate development; regulation of dopaminergic neuron differentiation; and regulation of neurogenesis. Predicted to be located in chromatin and nucleus. [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.
