Description
Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in embryonic neurocranium morphogenesis and epithelium development. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Van der Woude syndrome; cleft lip; orofacial cleft 6; popliteal pterygium syndrome; and syndactyly. Is expressed in several structures, including blastoderm; digestive system; forerunner cell group; head; and sensory system. Orthologous to human IRF6 (interferon regulatory factor 6).
