Description

Enables transcription cis-regulatory region binding activity. Involved in anatomical structure morphogenesis; cell differentiation; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Acts upstream of or within axial mesoderm morphogenesis. Predicted to be located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; chordo neural hinge; digestive system; endoderm; and liver primordium. Orthologous to human FOXA1 (forkhead box A1).
