    Summary
    Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and chromatin DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in nervous system development; regulation of transcription, DNA-templated; and visual perception. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including cilium organization; neural tube closure; and positive regulation of nodal signaling pathway involved in determination of lateral mesoderm left/right asymmetry. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nuclear body. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in holoprosencephaly and holoprosencephaly 5. Orthologous to human ZIC2 (Zic family member 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    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.
