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 cell differentiation and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Is expressed in several structures, including anlage in statu nascendi; antennal anlage; antennal primordium; central brain anlage; and head epidermis primordium.
