    Summary
    Predicted to enable RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity and transcription coregulator activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Predicted to be part of core mediator complex and mediator complex. Is expressed in intestine and pharynx. Orthologous to human MED8 (mediator complex subunit 8). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
