Summary: Enables DNA binding activity and DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in several processes, including central nervous system myelin maintenance; positive regulation of myelination; and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane and nucleus. Is expressed in pigmented retinal epithelium; spinal cord; and spinal cord marginal layer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cerebral infarction; congenital diaphragmatic hernia; hyperopia; nanophthalmos; and primary angle-closure glaucoma. Orthologous to human MYRF (myelin regulatory factor). [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.
