    Summary
    Enables sequence-specific double-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including neuron differentiation; positive regulation of neuron differentiation; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including generation of neurons; neuroblast migration; and positive regulation of inner ear auditory receptor cell differentiation. Predicted to be located in chromatin. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Implicated in autosomal dominant nonsyndromic deafness. [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.
