Description
Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in animal organ morphogenesis; osteoblast differentiation; and regulation of osteoblast proliferation. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in osteogenesis imperfecta type 12. Is expressed in several structures, including ectoderm; fin; head; optic primordium; and optic vesicle. Orthologous to human SP7 (Sp7 transcription factor).
