Description
Predicted to have sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in pronephric nephron tubule epithelial cell differentiation and retina morphogenesis in camera-type eye. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including basal plate midbrain region; nervous system; otic vesicle; pectoral fin bud; and pronephric tubule. Orthologous to human IRX2 (iroquois homeobox 2).
