Summary: Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and beta-catenin binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including canonical Wnt signaling pathway involved in negative regulation of apoptotic process; cellular response to interleukin-4; and regulation of gamma-delta T cell differentiation. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including T cell differentiation; embryonic morphogenesis; and neural tube development. Predicted to be located in euchromatin and nuclear body. Predicted to be part of beta-catenin-TCF complex. Predicted to be active in chromatin. Orthologous to human TCF7 (transcription factor 7).

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.
