    Summary
    Enables DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; early conceptus; eye; and genitourinary system. Orthologous to human RFX1 (regulatory factor X1).

Results show that reduced miRNA-124 improved microglia activation and up-regulated its downstream target RFX1, indicating that RFX1, as one of the target transcripts, facilitates microglial activation by miR-124 regulation; identified the binding site through which RFX1 directly regulates ApoE, may explain the missing link between decreased miRNA-124 and ineffective Abeta uptaking during aging.

    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.
