Description
Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in cerebellar Purkinje cell differentiation; cerebellar granule cell differentiation; and establishment of left/right asymmetry. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; digestive system; optic cup; optic vesicle; and retina. Orthologous to human KLF8 (Kruppel like factor 8).
