Summary: Enables several functions, including DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Involved in negative regulation of canonical Wnt signaling pathway; negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; and neural plate anterior/posterior regionalization. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including anterior/posterior pattern specification; embryonic morphogenesis; and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in nucleus. Part of RNA polymerase II transcription repressor complex. Is expressed in several structures, including body cavity or lining; cardiovascular system; embryo mesenchyme; genitourinary system; and inner ear. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in CAKUT2. Orthologous to human TBX18 (T-box transcription factor 18). [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.
