- Description
- Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including neural crest cell development; pharyngeal system development; and skeletal system development. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; cranial cartilage; neural crest; pectoral fin bud; and pharyngeal arch. Orthologous to human DLX2 (distal-less homeobox 2).
