Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to hydrogen peroxide; cellular response to reactive nitrogen species; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in chromatin; cytosol; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of RNA polymerase II transcription regulator complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleus. Used to study asthma and renal fibrosis. Biomarker of asthma and myocarditis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in colon adenocarcinoma; lipoid nephrosis; prostate carcinoma; rectum adenocarcinoma; and urinary schistosomiasis. Orthologous to human STAT6 (signal transducer and activator of transcription 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.
