Summary
Enables RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including animal organ development; face development; and nervous system development. Predicted to be located in nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; gut; and skin. Orthologous to human HOXB3 (homeobox B3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
Expression
Broad expression in adrenal adult (RPKM 10.4), genital fat pad adult (RPKM 3.2) and 17 other tissues See more

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.
