Summary: Enables sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including brown fat cell differentiation; negative regulation of cold-induced thermogenesis; and positive regulation of BMP signaling pathway. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cerebellar granule cell precursor proliferation; protein localization to cilium; and smoothened signaling pathway. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; embryo ectoderm; genitourinary system; and sensory organ. Used to study Dandy-Walker syndrome and cerebellar disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in nephronophthisis 14. Orthologous to human ZNF423 (zinc finger protein 423).

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.
