Summary: Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; identical protein binding activity; and sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in extraembryonic component; gut; heart; hemolymphoid system; and reproductive system. Orthologous to human RHOXF2 (Rhox homeobox family member 2) and RHOXF2B (Rhox homeobox family member 2B). [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.
