Description
Predicted to have several functions, including DNA-binding transcription factor activity; RNA polymerase II regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity; and nuclear receptor transcription coactivator activity. Involved in animal organ development and pectoral fin development. Predicted to localize to RNA polymerase II transcription factor complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute promyelocytic leukemia; lung cancer (multiple); and syndromic microphthalmia. Is expressed in several structures, including endoderm; hindbrain neural keel; mesoderm; nervous system; and neural plate. Orthologous to several human genes including RARA (retinoic acid receptor alpha).
