    Summary
    Predicted to enable DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including atrium; dorsal neurohemal organ; ectoderm anlage; extended germ band embryo; and ventral midline of embryo. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Klippel-Feil syndrome 2. Orthologous to several human genes including MEOX1 (mesenchyme homeobox 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
