Summary
Predicted to enable several functions, including RNA polymerase I general transcription initiation factor activity; RNA polymerase I transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and scaffold protein binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase I and transcription initiation at RNA polymerase I promoter. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular response to leukemia inhibitory factor and transcription elongation by RNA polymerase I. Located in fibrillar center. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in childhood-onset neurodegeneration with brain atrophy. Orthologous to human UBTF (upstream binding transcription factor).

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.
