Summary: Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; E-box binding activity; and protein dimerization activity. Acts upstream of or within artery development and branchiomeric skeletal muscle development. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in cardiovascular system; head muscle; mesenchymal cell; mesoderm; and pharyngeal arch. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in coronary artery disease and ventricular septal defect. Orthologous to human TCF21 (transcription factor 21).

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.
