Summary
Enables RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II and positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Orthologous to several human genes including RFX1 (regulatory factor X1); RFX2 (regulatory factor X2); and RFX3 (regulatory factor X3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
