    Summary
    Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity and sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Involved in insect visual primordium development and positive regulation of neural precursor cell proliferation. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including adult optic lobe neurons; cell body rind region; ganglia; larval neurons; and mushroom body. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
