Description
Exhibits DNA-binding transcription repressor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; chromatin binding activity; and cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including animal organ development; optic nerve formation; and regulation of hematopoietic stem cell proliferation. Localizes to chromatin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in prostate cancer. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; digestive system; intermediate cell mass of mesoderm; nervous system; and pleuroperitoneal region. Orthologous to human KLF6 (Kruppel like factor 6).
