Also known as: OCT6; OTF6; SCIP
Summary: Enables sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II; positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription; and positive regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of or within keratinocyte differentiation; nervous system development; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleoplasm.

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.
