Summary: Enables RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including chromatin remodeling; positive regulation of mating type switching; and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Part of SWI/SNF complex. Orthologous to several human genes including ARID5B (AT-rich interaction domain 5B). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
