Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and chromatin binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway; nervous system development; and neural crest cell migration. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including lacrimal gland development; melanocyte differentiation; and positive regulation of neuroblast proliferation. Located in mitochondrial outer membrane and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; inner ear; mesenchyme derived from neural crest; and nervous system. Used to study Kallmann syndrome; PCWH syndrome; and Waardenburg syndrome type 4C. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Kallmann syndrome; PCWH syndrome; Waardenburg syndrome type 2E; and Waardenburg syndrome type 4C. Orthologous to human SOX10 (SRY-box transcription factor 10). [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.
