Summary
Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic skeletal joint development; fin morphogenesis; and ventral spinal cord interneuron specification. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human EVX1 (even-skipped homeobox 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
