    Summary
    Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity and histone binding activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Predicted to be part of PRC1 complex. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including germ line cell; nervous system; optic vesicle; pectoral fin; and pleuroperitoneal region. Orthologous to human PHC2 (polyhomeotic homolog 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Oct 2024]

    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.
