Gene type: protein coding
Also known as: CTF; MACID; NF1-B; NFI-B; NFIB2; NFIB3; NF-I/B; NFI-RED; HMGIC/NFIB

Summary

Enables DNA-binding transcription activator activity, RNA polymerase II-specific; RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and transcription regulator inhibitor activity. Involved in brain development; negative regulation of DNA binding activity; and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in fibrillar center and nucleoplasm.
