Description
Exhibits DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including erythrocyte differentiation; hatching gland development; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including ectoderm; germ ring; hematopoietic system; lateral line system; and mesoderm. Orthologous to several human genes including KLF2 (Kruppel like factor 2).

Note
Oates et al. (2001) ZDB-PUB-010912-8 originally classified this gene as an orthologue of mammalian KLF4, based on amino acid sequence homology. A more complete analysis in Kotkamp et al. (2014) ZDB-PUB-131218-14 presented synteny evidence supporting orthology to mammalian KLF17 genes.
