Description
Predicted to have DNA binding activity and protein dimerization activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of neurogenesis; retina layer formation; and swimming behavior. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous. Is expressed in eye and immature eye. Orthologous to human ATOH7 (atonal bHLH transcription factor 7).
