Summary: Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II and nitrogen catabolite repression of transcription. Located in nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute myeloid leukemia; depressive disorder; immunodeficiency 21; myelodysplastic syndrome; and myeloid leukemia. Orthologous to human GATA2 (GATA binding protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

NP_012959.1

Negative regulator of genes in multiple nitrogen degradation pathways; expression is regulated by nitrogen levels and by Gln3p; member of the GATA-binding family, forms homodimers and heterodimers with Gzf3p; DAL80 has a paralog, GZF3, that arose from the whole genome duplication
