Summary: Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and cAMP response element binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Orthologous to human ATF2 (activating transcription factor 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2025]
