Description
Predicted to contribute to DNA-binding transcription factor activity. Involved in chordate embryonic development; endocrine pancreas development; and hindbrain morphogenesis. Predicted to localize to RNA polymerase II transcription factor complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital central hypoventilation syndrome. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; neural plate; neural tube; neurons; and posterior neural keel. Orthologous to several human genes including ASCL2 (achaete-scute family bHLH transcription factor 2).
