    Summary
    Enables RNA polymerase II transcription regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in central nervous system development and regulation of transcription by RNA polymerase II. Located in nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; embryo mesenchyme; future brain; genitourinary system; and retina. Used to study Dandy-Walker syndrome. Orthologous to human ZIC4 (Zic family member 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

    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.
