Summary
Enables DNA binding activity; DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; and promoter-specific chromatin binding activity. Involved in gene expression and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including embryonic morphogenesis; nervous system development; and tube morphogenesis. Located in several cellular components, including axoneme; ciliary tip; and nuclear speck. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; eye; genitourinary system; and jaw. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Culler-Jones syndrome; holoprosencephaly 9; and spina bifida. Orthologous to human GLI2 (GLI family zinc finger 2).

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.
