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. Acts upstream of or within central nervous system projection neuron axonogenesis; early neuron differentiation in forebrain; and telencephalon development. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including forebrain; forebrain neural plate; forebrain neural rod; neural keel; and periderm. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

Higher emx3 expression levels cause dorsal telencephalic markers to expand ventrally, which points to a possible role of emx3 in specifying dorsal telencephalon and a potential new function for Wnt/beta-catenin pathway activation.

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.
