- Description
- Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in embryonic morphogenesis and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including fin bud; median fin fold; sensory system; solid lens vesicle; and vent. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in craniosynostosis; craniosynostosis 2; and parietal foramina. Orthologous to human MSX2 (msh homeobox 2).
