- Description
- Predicted to have DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific. Involved in animal organ development. Predicted to localize to nucleus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Denys-Drash syndrome; Frasier syndrome; malignant mesothelioma; nephroblastoma; and nephrotic syndrome type 4. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; gonad primordium; mesoderm; pleuroperitoneal region; and podocyte. Orthologous to human WT1 (WT1 transcription factor).
