Summary
Enables chromatin insulator sequence binding activity and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in heterochromatin boundary formation and regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including Malpighian tubule primordium; anterior endoderm; embryonic/larval midgut primordium; ganglia; and mesoderm.
