Summary
Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and protein dimerization activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell differentiation; nervous system development; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Is expressed in ectoderm; musculoskeletal system; nervous system; and pharyngeal arch. Orthologous to human SIM2 (SIM bHLH transcription factor 2).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
