Summary: Enables RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity and chromatin binding activity. Involved in positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cartilage development; leukocyte differentiation; and lung development. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; skeleton; skin; and telencephalon. Used to study idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and systemic scleroderma. Orthologous to human FOSL2 (FOS like 2, AP-1 transcription factor subunit). [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.
