 - 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. Acts upstream of or within otic placode formation. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including immature eye; nervous system; neural keel; pharyngeal arch; and regenerating fin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cleft lip; cleft palate; orofacial cleft 5; tooth and nail syndrome; and tooth disease (multiple). Orthologous to human MSX1 (msh homeobox 1).
