Also known as: GATA-6
Summary: Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and transcription coactivator binding activity. Involved in gene expression; heart contraction; and sinoatrial node development. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cardiac muscle hypertrophy in response to stress; endodermal cell fate determination; and epithelial cell differentiation. Located in nucleus. Part of transcription regulator complex. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; early conceptus; embryo mesenchyme; gut; and heart. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in adenocarcinoma (multiple); congenital heart disease (multiple); and pancreatic hypoplasia-diabetes-congenital heart disease syndrome. Orthologous to human GATA6 (GATA binding protein 6). [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.
