Summary: Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in central nervous system development; neuron differentiation; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in head neurons; rectal gland cell; and tail neurons. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
