Summary
Enables RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity and RNA polymerase II-specific DNA-binding transcription factor binding activity. Acts upstream of or within DNA repair; cellular response to interleukin-7; and spermatogenesis. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Is expressed in central nervous system; genitourinary system; liver; and retina nuclear layer. Orthologous to human RAD23B (RAD23 homolog B, nucleotide excision repair protein).

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.
